This expansive stone slab is formed of zhenzhu stone, a conglomerate limestone extracted from Lake Tai in Jiangsu province. Speckled with almost painterly daubs of color, the sought-after stone was especially prized by scholars of the 16th through 18th centuries, earning a favored place within the scholars' studio. Captivating meditation stones such as this inspired the mind while they composed poetry, painted landscapes, or brushed calligraphy. We love this stone slab as a grand tabletop or displayed outdoors as a decorative addition to the garden.
