This lovely set includes refurbished Go Bowls and refurbished slate and shell Go Stones.
The stones are size 31 slate & shell. They have been cleaned per our Care Instructions. The 180 clamshells have been waxed and buffed - they measure 8.3-8.5mm. They are a variety of grades, and tend strongly towards Moon and Snow. The 181 slate stones are slightly thicker at 8.6-8.8mm, and have been washed and rinsed with distilled water.
It's preferred to have the black stones slightly thicker than the white - if they are the same size, the bright white pieces will appear larger when side by side with the black.
The bowls are Keyaki (Zelkova) with a pleasing orange-brown tone. They have been cleaned of their original finish, buffed with Monkey Wax, and given 3 weeks to cure. At XL size they fit the stones comfortably, with plenty of room to spare. They are 14.6cm wide and 8.1cm tall without lids (10cm with lids on).
This is one of our Vintage products.
