Japanese lacquer craftsman "支水 (Shi-sui)" made luxurious Japanese lacquer finished Go set for 15mm diameter Go stones.
This set is a valuable gem that cannot be obtained anywhere else.

All three pieces are beautifully finished in Japanese lacquer, and the same motif of "Shi-kunshi" is vividly painted using the traditional Japanese "Chin-kin" technique, making them a rare gem.

This is an extremely rare set, making it perfect to add to your collection or, of course, give as a gift!!!

The term "Shi-kunshi" refers to the four species of orchids, bamboos, chrysanthemums, and plums, and refers to a person who is a prince among plants and trees.
Especially in China, these four sovereigns are revered as symbols of target personages.

In this set, the four sovereigns are depicted on each of the four sides of the board, and on the sides and lids of the Go bowls and Go stones box.

"Chin-kin" is a traditional technique in which dots and lines are carved shallowly using a plane on a surface coated with lacquer, and gold leaf is sprinkled by rubbing raw lacquer on the carved areas.

It takes several months to produce, and the work is brought to life by the skill of the craftsman.
