Stalactite This item was part of a collection belonging to a relative. I don't know the details, but I'd like to offer it to someone who appreciates it or is looking for one! I don't have the knowledge to answer questions, but I can add more photos! A stalactite (tsurara-ishi) is formed by the precipitation of calcium carbonate contained in dripping water, and it is said to grow only about 1 cm every 100 years ^_^ The tip is slightly chipped. It stands on its own as shown in photo 5, but it's a little unstable, so it may need to be secured. ↓ I have various other items for sale! #ChipSHOP #ChipSHOPKura (Warehouse) #ChipSHOPVintage
