Chinese inkstone with delicate and elegant carving of a flying dragon. This item has been in personal collection and stored for a long time. I believe this is a natural Duanxi stone that has been carved and polished, and I obtained it from a Chinese vendor. I would appreciate it if you could make your judgment based on the photos. Size of the main body: Approximately 17.9cm x 10.4cm (center) x 1.7cm * Measured by an amateur ^ ^ Weight of the main body: 571g Wooden box size: Length 20.0cm Width 12.7cm Thickness 4.0cm Weight when stored in the wooden box: 988g It is a beautiful inkstone with a carving of a dragon advancing through the clouds. It is housed in a wooden box, and it is an item with taste and dignity. I cannot determine whether it is unused or used, but it is a very clean inkstone in good condition. There are no major or minor damages found on the inkstone itself, but please note that the wooden box has numerous scratches. Please refrain from purchasing if you are nervous, as this is a personal item that has been stored for a long time. I would be happy to sell it to someone who will use it for their enjoyment or appreciation. #CalligraphySupplies #ArtSupplies #InkPainting #JapanesePainting #HaikuPainting
