Chinese Meditation Stone on Carved Stand

About the Item

A well-chosen stone is a focal point of both a traditional Chinese garden and a scholar's studio, evoking the grandeur of nature and inspiring creative thought. Meditation stones offer the mind a place to focus - not unlike modern abstract art, each stone is open to interpretation and can be appreciated for the beauty of its form, color, and texture. The unique patterning of this polished stone conjures images of the desert floor, crackled from the heat, or perhaps of the shifting surface of a tall sand dune. A captivating sculptural object, this meditation stone rests upon a custom wooden Stand, intricately hand carved of bamboo shoots and leaves.
