About the Item
This round stone disc originated in Shanxi province as an early 20th-century threshing wheel. Secured to a wooden axel that ran through the center, the stone was rolled across stalks of wheat to separate the grain from the chaff. With simplicity of form and organic texture, the stone lives on as a minimalist sculpture, resembling an ancient bi disc or a Chinese coin (qián), a symbol of wealth and prosperity.
