Subject:Chinese ink stone
Posted By: Chris J. Sun, Sep 23, 2018 IP: 89.65.240.86

I have recently bought this large (31,5 x 25,5 cm) ink stone. Any information about inscription on rear side of ink stone would by welcome. My opinion is thtat it was made at end of 19th century. Am I right?

Could be the 28th year of the Republic of China
1939, or just simply 1928. I think it is the
former (1939)
