Mikura Tsuge tiger striped Carved pieces
[By Kunizo, Minase, 3 Kings]

[國蔵作・水無瀬・王3枚]

　Price : 290,000 JPY

　Product ID：A292

　This is a bold Minase modeled after Eisui. Each of Kunizo's four major typefaces requires a great deal of work. We must make every effort to make the work as attractive as possible by discussing it with the artist each time. The elegant tiger striped wood is the best finishing touch.

　This is the work of Tendo's premier craftman Kyutoku (real name Ito Kozo, 1918-1997). He was awarded the Minister of Labor Prize, and his honest, gentle, and elegant characters are the very essence of his personality. This work is carefully crafted in fine script using a special tiger striped wood base. The typeface Okuno Kinki is a popular typeface of the Okuno style, which was launched by Okuno Ikkyo in response to Ryuzan.

Mikura Tsuge root figured Heaped pieces
[By Fugetsu, Kinki]

[富月作・錦旗]

　Price : 650,000 JPY

　Product ID：A289

　Two new sets of heaped pieces by Fugetsu. They are Kinki and lower Ryoko, just finished in July, and are the most exclusive pieces you can find. Both pieces are made of Mikura tsuge, a rare wood from which only a few pieces can be obtained from a single tree. The dark-colored root wood with powerful bold Kinki. The brush storoke and finishing are all to the owner's liking, and the easy-to-use chamfering is also a first-rate job that takes a lot of time and effort.

Mikura Tsuge root tiger striped Heaped pieces
[By Fugetsu, Ryoko]

[富月作・菱湖書]

　Price : 650,000 JPY

　Product ID：A288

　Mikura wood is precious when only a few pieces can be obtained from a single tree after several pieces have been acquired, but it is very rare to find a set like this where all the pieces are in perfect harmony. This Eisui style's Ryoko is slightly narrower to accentuate the quality of the wood. For high quality heaped pieces, basic typefaces such as Ryoko, Kinki, and Minase are still good.

Mikura Tsuge straight grained Heaped pieces
[By Hakusui, Maki-Ryoko]

[祥山作・巻菱湖書]

　Price : 280,000 JPY

　Product ID：S686

　This is my great favorite, the usual Eisui style Maki-Ryoko. This is the Eisui style Maki-Ryoko that I had dreamed of for many years, and I can't complain about the thickness of the characters, the balance of strength and weakness, and the finished product. It is made of special top-quality wood with the depth of Mikura tsuge. The work is finished with elegance and serenity.
