This is a top-quality, natural Akita cedar, currently prohibited from being felled. It is a very rare item that is no longer available. There are some stains due to long-term storage, but there are no problems with use. Although unused, it has aged, so I will consider it as "near new". I have kept it carefully, intending to use it someday, but I haven't had the time or opportunity, so I hope it can be passed on to a household that will make good use of it. Body: Natural cedar (unpainted) Binding: Wild cherry (unpainted) Rice paddle: Akita cedar (unpainted) 7 sun (5 go): Approximately Φ230 x H130mm Thank you very much.
