Kuroki Goishi Centenary Special Set Arrived

My Kuroki Goishi Centenary Special set arrived. 3.7sun Hyuga Kaya floor goban, size 41 Blue Label stones, and very pretty Hyuga Kaya bowls. At 40% off it definitely feels like a good deal. The stones do take some getting used to but I am starting to enjoy the heft and they look beautiful on the board.

Images follow :)

My eyes always go to the bowls first, and the kaya bowls look amazing. Enjoy!

There's a set in this special offer w/ size 46: http://shop.kurokigoishi.co.jp/en/item/927.

Better hope your floor is level... those stones may just roll right off the board. :-)

I've just ordered mine too after reading this!
How long does it take for KGT ships out the set?
Can't wait to get my hands on it:)

Once I got the order confirmation it took about a week for it to arrive.
