<p>[QUOTE="NewEngland, post: 4420073, member: 6071"]Hi everyone, Can anyone translate the calligraphy on this stone? It's a white polished stone (called a scholar's stone?) with natural gray and black on the bottom. The white part is iridescent and shimmers in the light. I believe these were intended to sit on a scholar's desk to give them something natural to gaze at while thinking. It measures almost 6" high and the stone is cold to the touch. Any idea of what type of stone it is? Thanks!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]376916[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]376917[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
