Description: Here's a nicely carved, pear shaped, Chinese inkstone that was purchased by travelers in the late 20th century. They were well to do and purchased better than average souvenirs. Intricately carved sea turtles are swimming in, what looks like, waves and seafoam at one end of the inkstone. One of them has a stone inclusion in it's back. Waves of water, along with two inclusions, decorate the other end. NOTE: I couldn't find another inkstone even remotely similar to this one online. This would be a great addition to a collection I believe! This piece measures 9 1/2" x 6 3/4" (without the wooden stand/base). The inkstone, with base, weighs 5 lb 10 oz. The stone, and base, look perfect to me. I see no sign of damage or repair. Please feel free to email with any questions prior to bidding or buying. I try to give any information I have about the listings, and to tell you whether the information is fact or opinion. I have a "full refund option" (see returns below) policy for anything I misrepresent. My description will point out anything I find that could possibly be considered a flaw. For this reason, many past buyers felt that they received a better product than they expected.DOMESTIC SHIPPING CHARGES: Larger packages will have the option of 3 ground carriers. Priority mail is offered on smaller, more economical, packages. I use padded envelopes, peanuts, bubble wrap, and Styrofoam packaging as necessary to ensure safe arrival. Free local pick up in, or possibly near, Williston, FL is an option. If you live on the west coast please allow that transit time and costs will be more than average from Florida. I'm happy to combine multiple purchases, paid for at the same time, into one package to save on shipping.CUSTOMER SERVICE: Once you examine your purchase, please message, or leave positive feedback, to confirm receipt and satisfaction. If you encounter any problem with your service or product, I ask that you contact me, via eBay, so that I have the opportunity to resolve the issue.FEEDBACK: Automatic feedback is left after your purchase.
