2.4-sun Shogi Table Board – Kyushu Kaya, Single-piece, Straight-grain cut

Material

This table board is made from a single piece of Kyushu Kaya.
The straight-grain cut (masame) creates parallel lines across the surface, resulting in a calm and ordered appearance.

Within this orderly grain, there are stronger, more pronounced lines.
The density and subtle irregularities in the annual rings suggest that the tree grew under varying environmental conditions.

These characteristics are natural and reflect the history of the material itself.

Construction

The board is crafted from a single solid piece of wood.
There are no joints, and the grain runs uninterrupted across the playing surface.

At 2.4-sun in thickness, this table board is slightly thicker than standard specifications.
This added thickness contributes to a stable playing surface while remaining suitable for table use.

Character of the Grain

The stronger grain lines are traces of slow growth, sometimes formed under natural stress.
The pattern is not entirely uniform.

This variation gives the surface depth rather than symmetry.
The visual balance comes from the wood’s natural structure rather than controlled uniformity.

Consideration

This specification differs in character from thinner, lighter boards.
It may suit those who prefer additional stability in a table setting.
