The depression from the center to the side of this suiseki stone holds within it a white, crystallized section that looks as if it were a waterfall originating from a spring atop a rocky mountain sliding down to the side. Suiseki stones like this are called taki-ishi, meaning waterfall stones, and are adored by suiseki enthusiasts.
