This is a pair of extra-large Keyaki(zelkova) Go bowls – Low and Wide shape, crafted by Traditional Craftsman Biei, designed for Go stones up to size 36.

These beautiful bowls are created using lathe woodcraft techniques refined through over 50 years of experience.
Made from the distinguished hardwood Keyaki, renowned for its bold grain and commanding presence, these bowls have a dignified and substantial character.
Keyaki is one of Japan’s most representative hardwoods and has long been used in shrines and temples, high-end furniture, and even taiko drum bodies due to its strength and durability.

This pair is made in the Low and Wide shape, designed especially for tabletop boards. Compared to standard Go bowls, they are lower in height and offer a stable profile.
To balance the reduced height, the diameter is made slightly larger.
The wide opening allows stones to be taken out easily.
Visually refined and well-proportioned, the elegant design harmonizes beautifully with a Go board.
With a satisfying weight, the bowls provide exceptional stability when filled with stones.

Combining practicality with decorative appeal, these Keyaki Go bowls are suitable not only for daily play but also as a distinguished gift.
A stately and refined piece worthy of long-term appreciation.

*It is a beautiful pair of Go bowls with almost no visible flaws.
*Please refer to the photos for details.
*This Go Bowl is for Go stones up to size 36.
*A copy of the Traditional Craftsman certification is included.

Keyaki flat style size 36
Keyaki wood is hard and resilient, offering excellent durability and making it well suited for everyday play.
Its greatest appeal lies in its expressive grain patterns.
As a ring-porous wood with clearly defined growth rings, it displays bold and dynamic figuring, and may occasionally show distinctive patterns such as bird’s-eye or wave-like grain, creating a truly one-of-a-kind appearance.
When polished, the wood develops a natural luster that adds elegance within its calm presence, giving it a strong visual impact on the board.
The color ranges from bright yellow-brown to reddish-brown, gradually deepening and gaining richer luster with continued use.
The evolving character brought by aging is one of the unique pleasures of keyaki wood.
