Go stones : Clamshell Go Stones Premium Blossom grade size 38
Clamshell Go stones are white Go stones made from clam shells.

These stones allow you to fully enjoy the unique texture and sound of high-quality Clamshell Go stones.
*Please check the thickness sample image.
Each Clamshell Go stones are made by hand by Go stones craftsmen through more than 20 manufacturing processes.
It takes approximately 2 to 6 months from the clam shell to the finished product.
We hope you will experience the skill of Go stones making that has been passed down from generation to generation for more than 100 years, and the brilliance of the Go stones carved by traditional Go stone making craftsmen.
Quality : The highest quality with almost no scratches that has cleared strict selection standards.
Grade (striped pattern) : The spacing between the stripes is a little coarser than "Snow grade", which is about 70% or less of the total.
* Please check the striped sample image.
* "Nachiguro" slate black Go stones are also included.
*Clamshell white Go stones are made from Mexican clamshells.
*Our Nachi-guro black Go stones are manufactured to be 0.3mm thicker and 0.3mm larger in diameter than the white Go stones of the same size.
The reason for this is that white is a visually expanding color.
When white and black stones have the exact same diameter and thickness, black Go stones tend to appear slightly smaller to the human eyes.
To ensure that both Go stones look about the same size on the board, we make this slight adjustment.
