Shewen Meditation Stone

About the Item

Following the sculpted form, marbled coloring, and natural veining of this one-of-a-kind stone can be deeply meditative. Viewed as a source of beauty and creativity, Chinese scholar-artists would decorate their studios and gardens with similar stones and plumb their mesmerizing forms for inspiration. Sourced from China's Dongbei province, this meditation stone has a magnetic pattern of green-and-black strata. Named for the serpentine deposits that give the stone its vibrant green coloring, shewen stones are a beautiful way to add everlasting color to a garden or interior.
