 Toshichisei is a typeface arranged from the characters of seven Chinese calligraphers, including Wang Xizhi and Ouyang Xun. Although it is a popular typeface, it is difficult to carve, and it is said that one is a full-fledged professional if he can carve the front of 香車 (Lance) without chipping. We think it is a perfect carved pieces.

 I love Eisui's bold typeface. I have been asking artists to make it a little thicker, but they has not given us a good answer, saying that it would take more time and effort than a fine one. This time, my favorite set was completed by Kunizo's Minase calligraphy. The typeface is copied from Eisui's Minase, and everything is done in Eisui's style. It seems that a lot of effort was put into this piece, but I like it very much. The piece is made of dark-colored Satsuma wood, making it a very powerful piece.
