Long attributed only to Junzo Sakakura, this model
was initially created by Daisaku Choh, before its
reworking under Sakakura’s supervision when
Daisakuh Choh joined the Sakakura studio in the
early 1950s. After several intermediate versions, the
final version was presented at the XIIth Milano
Triennale in 1960, before being edited by Tendo
Mokko.
