Re: Japanese Stone inkwell?

Your beautiful inkstone could be Chinese rather than Japanese. It is obviously of very fine quality. The inscription on the lid of its case is the famous HanShan poem, which is often reproduced, both as a rubbing off the original stone inscription or in their own style by various calligraphers.

Thank you for sharing.
