Shoushan Stone Type, Openwork Carved Antique Seal Material, Seal Engraving Material, Four Treasures of the Study, Chinese Art, Calligraphy Tools, Seal, Seal Script

This is an old seal stone that has been stored by my family for many years.
It is likely my grandfather's.
m(_ _)m

The top is decorated with openwork carving, giving it a Chinese craft-like atmosphere reminiscent of cloud patterns and arabesque motifs.

Rather than a clear depiction of a creature like a dragon for the seal's finial, it has a design closer to an abstract pedestal, making it a striking piece for study decoration.
Subjectively, I have the impression that it might be inspired by a dragon.

The stone surface shows a natural gradation of beige to reddish-brown tones, and when light is shone on it, a beautiful semi-transparent expression can be seen.
It has a captivating, Jupiter-like appearance.

The seal surface is uncarved, so it can be used for seal engraving, signature seals, or sumi-e painting.

??Easy to grip??
