Oriental Stone Vase

Description The first time that I saw this vase, I thought it was 3 seperate vases attached by intricate stone cuttings. I looked at it closer and it is 3 vases and intricate leaves and vines made from 1 block of stone. I believe that it was then polished. If you turn it upside down, you can see the carving tool marks.
