Jiulongbi Mountain Meditation Stone
About the Item
A well-chosen stone is a focal point of both a traditional Chinese garden and a scholar's studio, evoking the complexities of nature and inspiring creative thought. Polished to bring out its evocative veining and smooth its edges, this mesmerizing stone resembles a mountain range with its peaks and valleys, swirling with rich earth tones. An elaborately carved wooden frame, custom made to the stone's curves, elevates the piece to a work of sculpture.
