They all were designed and hand crafted in a variety of fine materials including sterling silver, gold plate, pewter, copper, and bamboo. They have a fine original patina from appropriate age and fortmer use.

The name comes from the fact that I enjoyed pouring water on the stones and changing the color of the stones.

It is made with the image of a mountain view.
