A DUAN SIZHIYANG RECTANGULAR INKSTONE

SONG DYNASTY (AD 960-1279)

The smooth purplish-grey stone is crisply carved with straight flat sides enclosing a sloping platform that descends to a deep water well at the closed end, with the opposite end and underside cut away. Both sides are carved in high relief with a flaming pearl to cleverly utilize an ‘eye’ in the stone.

6 1/2 in. (16.5 cm.) long, cloth box
