AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This is a Japanese Suiseki (viewing stone) naturally shaped like Mount Fuji, the most iconic symbol of Japan.
The stone is displayed on its original wooden daiza, carefully shaped to fit the stone’s natural contours.

Despite its small size, the stone beautifully captures the dignified silhouette of Mt. Fuji, with gentle slopes and subtle color variations created entirely by nature over time.
Such compact Fuji-shaped Suiseki are especially appreciated for tea rooms, desks, or small display spaces.

Suiseki are traditionally admired for their ability to evoke vast landscapes within a small form, and this piece is a fine example of that aesthetic.
• Material: Natural stone
• Origin: Japan
• Period: Showa period (mid–late 20th century)
• Condition: Good vintage condition, with natural surface features typical of Suiseki

Dimensions (stone only):
• Height: approx. 3.5 cm
• Width: approx. 7.5 cm
• Depth: approx. 4 cm

Weight: approx. 47 g

This is a charming small-sized Suiseki, ideal for collectors, Japanese art enthusiasts, or as a refined interior accent.
