Currently, the raw material for Clamshell Go stones are Mexican Clamshells, but at least a few hundred shells with a thickness of 15 mm or more are required to produce Go stones with a thickness of approximately 14.3 mm.
However, such thick shells are rarely found, so we usually do not have them in stock.
This time, we are selling only 1set of such rare Size 50 Go stones, though they are repaired Go stones.
This is a chance to get a “Monster” thickness Go stone, size 50.
