This is a vintage go (igo) game set used to play the popular strategy board game Igo, or Go. It comes with a small-sized 19×19 wooden folding go board (goban) and both white and black resin game pieces. It comes in the original paper box.
Black and white stones are used as game pieces by two players. By placing the stones on the intersections of lines on a go board, the goal of the game is to section off a larger portion of the board as the other player.
