拍品資料及來源
The black streaks are produced by baking ash into the stone's natural fissures for archaistic affect. This special technique was further heightened with the addition of subtly tinted polish to deepen the color and create the illusion of age. This technique was much appreciated and valued by Ming dynasty literati.
