◎ Thank you for viewing. (Please also read the profile if possible) ● This is a thick, oval inkstone with a carved design of fruit and leaves and a parrot, made from beautiful Godaizan green stone (approximately 9 inches, large size). "Godaizan green stone" is an excellent inkstone from Shanxi Province, a beautiful green stone with a unique pattern of fine, dotted ripples in its lustrous green color. This inkstone has a strong appearance of fine, dotted ripples, and in fact, its stone quality is comparable to that of Songhua River green stone or Taohe River green stone. Regarding Godaizan green stone inkstones, the master Sakaki Bakuzan, who lived from the Showa to Heisei eras, seemed to have highly valued them. 【Features and Size of the Inkstone】 ★ Godaizan green stone oval inkstone with fruit, leaves, and parrot design, thick type (Beautiful stone with a unique pattern of fine, dotted ripples in its lustrous green color, comes with a wooden lacquered box, made in Shanxi Province) Inkstone body ⇒ Approximately 21.6 x 17.1 x 4.8 cm (approx. 9 inches, approx. 2715g) Including the box ⇒ Approximately 23.8 x 18.9 x 6.9 cm (approx. 3203g) ● Made nearly forty years ago, it has some scratches, scuffs, and ink residue, but the inkstone surface has strong, fine grinding ability, and I believe it excels at both grinding and ink dispersion. ● Due to camera functions and lighting, there may be some difference between the images posted and the actual item, but please understand this beforehand. ● Recently, it seems that some people are illegally copying the descriptions and images from my Mercari listing page and selling them at extremely low prices on fake websites, even though they don't have the actual item.
