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.
