Chinese Scholars Objects
It is one of the objects from ‘the scholar’s table’. If you were a Chinese scholar in the middle of the 18th Century – or even the 19th Century – you would have a table, and on it you would have a number of key things: brushes for calligraphy, a Bitong (a brush pot) to put your brushes in, and an ink stone to grind up ink.
