This wonderful set of equipment was refurbished in our Colorado workshop.
The stones are size 36 slate & shell. They have been cleaned per our Care Instructions. As you can see from the photos, the white pieces are clamshell, while the black pieces are slate. The black stones are slightly larger than the white, to account for black's slimming effect - this way they look the same size when side-by-side on the board.
The white stones look like Mexican clamshell, but a light shining through them shows more of an orange color and very dense lines, so they may be Japanese. The seem to be mostly Snow-grade.
The bowls are Chestnut, XL size, and they fit the size 36 stones snugly. The bowls were stripped of a dark stain, cleaned with turpentine, then treated with Monkey Wax (a combination of beeswax and mineral oil). An original manufacturers box is included. Because this set came to Baduk Club used, it may not be original to these bowls.
A Japanese booklet on how to play Go is included with delightful illustrations.
This is a Vintage product.
