This exquisite celadon porcelain inkstone dropper is a functional work of art from Yi Lin Arts & Treasures of China. Crafted in the form of a \"treasure boat,\" the piece features a tranquil sea-green glaze and intricate detailing, including a romantic scene of a couple whispering within the cabin.
In traditional calligraphy, this vessel is used to carefully drop water onto an ink stone to create the perfect ink consistency. The boat features a spout at one end for pouring and a central cavity designed to hold or rest a calligraphy brush. This set is complete with its original dark-wood carved display stand and arrives in a stunning blue silk brocade presentation box with a padded red satin lining.
