Selected for its organic patterning and subdued color, the low table was sculpted from a solid block of stone, hand-turned to the traditional drum form of Chinese garden stools. Within its painterly veining we see the swaying branches of plum tree in springtime, dotted with new leaves and delicate blossoms. Anchoring its surroundings with the permanence of stone furniture, the drum is ideal indoors or out as a stool, pedestal or side table.

Minor chip to rim. One patched repair.
