“Scholar Stone Flower 2011”

Scholar stones are traditionally pieces of stones selected and displayed similar to vegetal bonsai for visual and spiritual enjoyment。Flowers are universally enjoyed for its sexy beauty and pleasure as a symbol of plenitude Together we see simple lines of construction that transform a stone into a flower。 The shiny stainless steel scholar stone flowering into long term happiness for many special moments to come。

赏石是中国传统用来观赏的漂亮盆景石头。书房案子上摆放後空间有安静典雅的气氛。鲜花也有同样的功能。我们直觉感到活的生趣和联想。

透过明亮简洁的统一线条，空靈巨雕赏石开花； 大人小孩旁边一站，自身马上变小；指向一段闪亮多姿硬朗洁净又长线的开心时光。

Many people ask me about Scholar Stone Flower, especially the part about the Scholar Stone. Either they dont see the stone, or they think its funny to have a stone thats "Scholarly". So I found some online information to clarify what rock collectors love - Scholar Stone.
