Dahua Meditation Stone

Set upon its side, we display this dahua stone like a traditional scholars' rock. Meditating on the stone’s irregular composition, the scholar sought inspiration in the stone’s unpredictable patterning. Dahua stones are dredged from the depths of the Red River in China's Guangxi province, where a silt-laden current naturally polishes each stone and deposits layers of strata over time. Prized for their density and warm tones, dahua stones such as this are a favorite way to texture interiors.
