"China's natural stone paintings are actually 1/8"-1/4" thick slices of marble stone cut from slabs or boulders that have been mined from tens of millions of years old natural deposits found deep in caves or buried in stream beds located high in the mountains. Sometimes large natural boulders that are found can measure six to eight feet in length! These deposits are remarkably unique to Yunnan Province's Dali Prefecture and the Cangshan Mountainshome to special natural stones of uncommon beauty." - Read more about this history of these beautiful creations in Dreaming of Dreamstones by author and dreamstone lecturer Douglas Schneible.
