Go Stones, Boards, Bowls, Sets & Chinese Chess (Xiangqi)

July 17, 2009
We have found new GO suppliers in Korea and China and have expanded
 our selection. More will likely follow through the end of the year 
as we continue to review samples as they arrive.

The Game of GO
Wood, shell and stone---circles, lines and rectangles. From these simple elements a game has evolved with enduring popularity over 5000 years. The game is so simple that it is profound---so profound that many have devoted their lives to its mastery.
A game of the court of Chinese emperors, of Shogun, Samurais, and Monk in feudal Japan, the aesthetics of Go have developed far further than in any other game. A fine playing set will enhance your enjoyment of this ancient but ever new game. And perhaps this wonderful game will heighten your perceptual and cognitive abilities. The education of cultured persons in ancient Japan was considered incomplete without a knowledge of Go, probably the oldest and most played board game in the world.
