Pair of Komadai - Shogi Piece Stands (2cm thick)

A pair of solid wooden Komadai which are used to hold captured Shogi pieces. The Komadai - or Shogi piece stands - are placed on either side of the board.

During play, it is common to keep captured pieces on a wooden stand (komadai) which is traditionally placed so that its bottom left corner aligns with the bottom right corner of the board from the perspective of each player. It is not permissible to hide pieces from full view.

Whilst not an essential accessory, komadai certainly add to the authenticity and overall aesthetic of the game.
