Hi Omar... I would consider classifying the shape as sandan doha-ishi ("3-step slope stone"). The top step of a dan-seki should be flat. There is a stone of related contour stone in the Japanese text Suiseki: Art Created by Nature (vol 1, p. 92) which is classified in this way. The distinction is imagining a peak above water terracing, which is imagined by stepped plateaus. I think there is another stone closer to the shape of yours classified as sandan doha-ishi in that 2-volume text series, but I couldn't quickly locate it.

We've discussed differences in slope/plateau & step/terrace stones previously on IBC... and it has been a recurring theme in California Aiseki Kai articles.

Thanks Chris for your help, measurements are 12 "x 5" x 5 ", and if cut down.




This is another stones of this week and it measurements are 13" x4 "x3"

Hi Omar... Your website's international suiseki links' list is excellent. I hope they attract new eyes &, perhaps, create discussion.

Thanks Chris for your chance at the forum.
I do not like discussions. because people then feel offended or felt.
