This organically formed rock in the shape of a mountain range displays sharp peaked mountain peaks, the perfect setting for letting your mind meditate as you journey though these miniature mountains as well as for resting one's calligraphy brush, presented with a custom carved wood stand.

6 1/2 x 9 x 6 in.

From a Private Collection, Washington, D.C.

Scholar's stones such as this one have been collected and prized by Chinese scholars since the Tang dynasty when using them in garden came in vogue. Later on, smaller pieces like this one were displayed in the scholar's private study serving as a miniature form of nature for meditation.

Some natural splitting to the rock with loose pieces retained, two areas of repair.
