On offer is a highly abstract scholar rock on a fitted wood stand collected by an American collector in Palm Desert, CA. The dense rock in dark grey is likely granite and takes a natural sculptural form of a bird, which explains the note on the back from the previous collector "A Constantin Brancusi Bird". The rock is presented in the tradition of a Chinese scholar rock on a fitted carved wood stand, very sculptural and visually interesting from different angles. While Chinese scholar stones are appreciated all over the world, many collectors also look into their local stone sources that reflect the same spirit and philosophy of using the viewing stone as a way to meditate in one's study. This is such a wonderful example. Under the base, it was marked by the collector's name Ralph Johnson Huntington and year of 2013.
