Stone from Nam Giang river

Hi IBC members.
Please give me your comments and tell me
how to make a daiza for it

Hi Thientrakieu

Could you make something, that looks like a neck, and shoulders?......To me, does the stone look like a thoughtfull nosemonkey....( This is the name of a kind of monkey, direct translated from danish).

Kind regards Yvonne

I can see the monkey; I think we call it a Proboscis Monkey. I like the idea of a neck and shoulders.

I swear this is from the website Wikipedia.
They have a photo but it didn't copy and I am not sure it would be allowed in any case. Just go to the Wikipedia website for the photo or google Proboscis Monkey.

The proboscis monkey (Nasalis larvatus) or long-nosed monkey, known as the bekantan in Malay, is a reddish-brown arboreal Old World monkey that is endemic to the south-east Asian island of Borneo. It belongs in the monotypic genus Nasalis, although the pig-tailed langur has traditionally also been included in this genus - a treatment still preferred by some.[3]
The monkey also goes by the Malay name monyet belanda ("Dutch monkey"), or even orang belanda ("Dutchman"), as Indonesians remarked that the Dutch colonisers often had a similarly large belly and nose.

Hi Billy

Hi Everybody
This is my new stone from Nam Giang river. Please tell me what kind it is, is it an agglomerate?

Hello Thientrakieu.
It looks like a conglomarate but are you sure it is naturally cemented together?

Hello Sunip.
Perhaps you're right,it's a conglomarate . I'm sure it's naturally cemented together because I myself found it.

It doesn't look natural to me, it looks like the remains of older construction using cement. The material between the small stones looks like cement.

Hi Billy M Rhodes.
You have your own reason not to believe it. I think people often use pulpstones with the same size for their construction instead of pebbles or cobble with not the same size.

Hi Everybody
Another stone from NAm Giang, I use an old driftwood to make a seat for it. I am looking forward to hearing from your comments.

Hi to all, the conglomerate pictured is a natural formation. We see much of it along the Rogue River where pyroclastic mud flows from volcanic eruptions are eroded away by the cut bank of the river. Another find is a stone that looks like a piece of brick impregnated with pebbles. I have another stone that looks like something that dripped out of a cement mixer, but was found deep in the earth. When you consider how these fakey looking stones are formed, I find the pondering very interesting. Rick

Hi Thientrakieu



Many thanks for showing us this very elegant and tastefull display, with one stone, and a small piese of wood.

kind regards Yvonne

Hi RKatzin,
I understand what you say. Here is the second stone, it is a conglomerate from cement mixer I found on the river. There is a lot of mortar between pebbles to agglutinate them, very different from the first stone.
