A few weeks ago I mentioned that I was planning to add a new set of hand carved shogi pieces to my range of top quality shogi koma sets.
It took me a while, but at last, today, I have done it!
The set is hand carved by craftsman Yamagami, using a deep-cut carving style. The style is very distinctive, as can be seen in the above photo.
The wood used for this set is Siamese boxwood.

I think "yamaue" should read "yamagami"
Thank you for pointing that out. I changed the name in the main blog post.
