Rather unusual late 19th century Chinese scholar’s rock made out of a piece of amber. Did not photograph well. Wonderfully translucent when held against light, can be viewed from several sides and conveys a very good feeling of a weathered surface of a mountain.

Height with stand 2 3/4 inches.

Vase of exceptional size in Satsuma earthenware. It is extremely difficult to make such a large and above heavy earthenware because the audacious shape carries a risk of subsidence during firing. It is certain that the artist must have used supports during the firing. It is a technical feat of a master potter.
