About the Item

This sculptural stone object may have originated as a rustic column base for a tall courtyard entryway, or perhaps as the plinth for carved stone statue. The low stone table dates to the mid-19th century and was chiseled by hand from a solid block of limestone with an rounded silhouette and an irregular, timeworn texture. An essential element of the traditional Chinese garden, stone forms such as this elevate their surroundings with a sense of permanence, strength and quiet beauty.
