Authentic Japanese Shogi “koma” game piece dating to the 1970s, beautifully hand-crafted from solid oak wood and signed by the artist on the reverse.
This piece represents the 王将 (Ōshō – King), the most important piece in the traditional Japanese chess game Shogi. It is often collected not only for play, but as a symbol of wisdom, protection, and authority.
Sourced directly from a Japanese Government Auction, guaranteeing authenticity.
Each stroke of the bold black calligraphy was applied by hand, making this tile a wonderful example of mid-Showa Japanese craftsmanship.
Due to age, this vintage item shows natural patina and light surface marks. Please review all photos carefully.
