This tool was traditionally employed by carpenters for marking wood.

This wooden Sumi-Tsubo is expertly hand-carved and chiseled. Images of a turtle (minogame 蓑亀) and a crane are depicted on the wood.

Both the turtle and the crane hold deep symbolic meanings in Japanese culture, where they are associated with longevity and happiness.

This traditional Japanese tool not only holds practical value but also serves a decorative purpose.

Dimensions: height 11 cm, width 30 cm, depth 12 cm. less
