Lakan Name Panel Acrylic Stand, 15 cm – The Apothecary Diaries

Lakan sees the people around him as Go pieces and plans three moves ahead of all of them, which makes him a brilliant strategist and an exhausting guest. This Lakan acrylic stand shows the eccentric with his monocle, a hand at his chin and a grin that suggests the game is already won.

Lakan with his name panel: acrylic stand

He stands full-length in a long, loose black robe cinched with a brown belt, one arm across his chest and the other hand raised to his chin. His dark hair is tied up under a black cap with the ends sticking out, and his eyes are narrowed into a pleased squint. The panel behind him is a soft grey with gold bamboo and his name in two seals, above a grey base. Strategist of the La clan, lover of Go and shogi, and, as fans learn, Maomao's birth father, much to her annoyance.

Next to the Go board

He belongs beside a Go board, a chess set or a stack of strategy games, or at the far end of the shelf from Maomao of the same line, which is exactly where she would put him. Jinshi, Gaoshun, Consort Gyokuyou, Consort Loulan and Xiaolan are in the line too. A clever gift for the board-game player in your life.
