    Description

    An aged dark patina bamboo that has been hollowed and carved with a design of scholars in a garden. The carving is deep and angular.
    A tall narrow piece of bamboo has been carved with a surface motif of three scholars in a garden with trees overhead. The carving is deep and angular. The bamboo has a dark patina with areas that are spotty and lighter in color, and the bamboo has a soft worn feel. The piece is heavy and the walls of the bamboo are fairly thick. The mouth has a carved rounded edge. The carving looks like a chisel like tool was used because the cuts appear to be chipped off the bamboo.
    There is an old paper label from MILL HOUSE Woodbury, Conn. And has a written CIRCA 1860.
