Kurokaki Go bowl is a high-quality artwork with a beautiful appearance characterized by a clear contrast of black and white colors.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe black persimmon tree needs to be dried out in the open air for many years to be used as material for wooden artifacts.\u003cbr\u003e\nIt is an extremely difficult material to handle since the white and black areas have different shrinkage ratios, which may often result in cracking during the drying process.\u003cbr\u003e\n    \n\n\u003cimg data-mce-fragment=\"1\" alt=\"kurokaki\"

drying processes.\u003cbr\u003e\nAs it is carefully dried and painstakingly crafted, the Go bowl is not easily deformed and can retain its beauty for many years.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe greatest feature of the Kurokaki (black persimmon) Go bowl is the unique appearance of the black patterns on the wood surface.\u003cbr\u003e\nSome Go bowls have a black pattern as if it is drawn with a fine brush, while others have a bold black pattern, which is a miracle of nature and you can never find two of the same design.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nKurokaki (black persimmon) is rarely available on the wood market and it is difficult to tell whether it has a black pattern until it is cut.\u003cbr\u003e\nEven if the wood has black patterns after cutting, nobody knows how the black pattern will appear on the surface until the Go bowl is completely finished.\u003cbr\u003e\nOnly artisans who have been engaged in making Go bowls for many years and know the nature of this wood are able to make a black persimmon Go bowl, which makes it truly a gem and worth calling a \"precious wood\".\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nFor more information on Go bowls, please refer to \"How to choose Go

hardwoods.\u003cbr\u003e\nToday, securing high-quality material has become increasingly difficult, and it is treated as a rare and premium wood.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e■ Characteristics of Honkuwa\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nHonkuwa is dense, resilient, and highly stable, with minimal warping.\u003cbr\u003e\nIt is not excessively hard, yet possesses ample strength and excellent workability, making it well suited for precision turned objects and fine crafts.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe growth rings are relatively fine, the pores are evenly distributed, and the surface texture is smooth.\u003cbr\u003e\nWhen polished, it develops a natural luster and a refined finish.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003e■ Color and Aging\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nWhen newly finished, it displays tones ranging from pale yellow-brown to bright golden hues.\u003cbr\u003e\nOver time, it gradually takes on a deeper reddish tint, maturing into a rich amber color.\u003cbr\u003e\nThis beautiful aging process is one of Honkuwa’s greatest charms, developing greater dignity and luster the longer it is used.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n    \n\u003cstrong\u003e■ Grain and Figuring\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nTypically, Honkuwa shows straight and well-ordered grain, but it may occasionally display beautiful figured patterns such as bird’s-eye, curly, or wave-like figure.\u003cbr\u003e\nSections with pronounced figure are especially rare and reveal a three-dimensional character depending on the angle of light.\u003cbr\u003e\nIts appeal lies in combining refined elegance with subtle brilliance.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003e■ Uses\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIt is widely used for shogi pieces, piece boxes, Go bowls, high-end furniture, small boxes, and fine crafts—items that require precision and dignity.\u003cbr\u003e\nDue to its hardness and strength, it is also used for items requiring durability, such as walking sticks.\u003cbr\u003e\nValued for both its stability and graceful aging, Honkuwa is appreciated for its practicality as well as its beauty.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIts elegant tone, developing luster, and rarity make Honkuwa one of Japan’s most distinguished

--\u003e\n    \n“Moku” (figured grain) refers to distinctive and decorative grain patterns that appear on the surface of wood.\u003cbr\u003e\nUnlike ordinary straight grain or annual ring patterns, figured grain is created by irregular structural changes that occur naturally during a tree’s growth, and is often described as nature’s own artwork.\u003cbr\u003e\nRepresentative types include tiger figure, blister figure, burl figure, and bird’s-eye figure—each displaying unique expressions such as stripe-like patterns, bubble-like textures, or complex formations created around

In the world of Go and Shogi, it is also used for boards, bowls, and piece boxes, adding special value to each item.\u003cbr\u003e\nFigured grain, shaped by nature itself, brings unique character and

Kurokaki Go bowl is a high-quality artwork with a beautiful appearance characterized by a clear contrast of black and white colors.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe black persimmon tree needs to be dried out in the open air for many years to be used as material for wooden artifacts.\u003cbr\u003e\nIt is an extremely difficult material to handle since the white and black areas have different shrinkage ratios, which may often result in cracking during the drying process.\u003cbr\u003e\n    \n\n\u003cimg data-mce-fragment=\"1\" alt=\"kurokaki\"

drying processes.\u003cbr\u003e\nAs it is carefully dried and painstakingly crafted, the Go bowl is not easily deformed and can retain its beauty for many years.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe greatest feature of the Kurokaki (black persimmon) Go bowl is the unique appearance of the black patterns on the wood surface.\u003cbr\u003e\nSome Go bowls have a black pattern as if it is drawn with a fine brush, while others have a bold black pattern, which is a miracle of nature and you can never find two of the same design.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nKurokaki (black persimmon) is rarely available on the wood market and it is difficult to tell whether it has a black pattern until it is cut.\u003cbr\u003e\nEven if the wood has black patterns after cutting, nobody knows how the black pattern will appear on the surface until the Go bowl is completely finished.\u003cbr\u003e\nOnly artisans who have been engaged in making Go bowls for many years and know the nature of this wood are able to make a black

Kurokaki Go bowl is a high-quality artwork with a beautiful appearance characterized by a clear contrast of black and white colors.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe black persimmon tree needs to be dried out in the open air for many years to be used as material for wooden artifacts.\u003cbr\u003e\nIt is an extremely difficult material to handle since the white and black areas have different shrinkage ratios, which may often result in cracking during the drying process.\u003cbr\u003e\n    \n\n\u003cimg data-mce-fragment=\"1\" alt=\"kurokaki\"

and drying processes.\u003cbr\u003e\nAs it is carefully dried and painstakingly crafted, the Go bowl is not easily deformed and can retain its beauty for many years.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe greatest feature of the Kurokaki (black persimmon) Go bowl is the unique appearance of the black patterns on the wood surface.\u003cbr\u003e\nSome Go bowls have a black pattern as if it is drawn with a fine brush, while others have a bold black pattern, which is a miracle of nature and you can never find two of the same design.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nKurokaki (black persimmon) is rarely available on the wood market and it is difficult to tell whether it has a black pattern until it is cut.\u003cbr\u003e\nEven if the wood has black patterns after cutting, nobody knows how the black pattern will appear on the surface until the Go bowl is completely finished.\u003cbr\u003e\nOnly artisans who have been engaged in making Go bowls for many years and know the nature of this wood are able to make a black persimmon Go bowl, which makes it truly a gem and worth calling a \"precious wood\".\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nFor more information on Go bowls, please refer to \"How to choose Go

is created by irregular structural changes that occur naturally during a tree’s growth, and is often described as nature’s own artwork.\u003cbr\u003e\nRepresentative types include tiger figure, blister figure, burl figure, and bird’s-eye figure—each displaying unique expressions such as stripe-like patterns, bubble-like textures, or complex formations created around
