    This is a flag placed on a piece to indicate its promotion when a piece on the "Ou-sho" side is promoted. Originally, in Shogi, turning a piece over indicates that it has been "promoted", but in Samurai Shogi, a 'promotion' is indicated by placing a flag on it. The military flag bears the Takeda family crest and the words "風林火山(wind,forest,fire,mountain)". Each letter is 1/8" square and very finely carved.
