Furuya stones, produced in Wakayama Prefecture, Kii Province, have a long history. They were loved by the Tokugawa family, one of the three ruling branches of the Edo period, and the Kishu domain prohibited their mining as a domain asset. This stone, fitting its inscription [Kinotoro], presents the image of a clear stream valley, a true work of art created by nature. Although there are some repaired areas, this is a superb stone with impressive size and a rich landscape, representing the pinnacle of Furuya stones, which have been a representative type of Japanese viewing stones since ancient times.
*Although not easily noticeable unless viewed up close, there are repairs in the area shown in Image 12. Please consider your purchase after confirming the condition in the images.
*The chasen (tea whisk) and the Jōgaku stone [Echigo Fuji] in Image 16 are for comparison purposes only and are not included.
