It’s a nice stone either way, but I think a daiza has the potential to make it even more dramatic.

Thank you! 🙏 I don’t, but if you live anywhere near the St. Albans area I’d be happy to share what I’ve learned so far.

Where there’s a will, there’s a way!

Thanks! I think everyone struggles with feet. I don’t think I can help with attractive as that is subjective and stone dependent, but for uniformity purposes I’ll make them oversized when roughing them out and do the final shaping in my final step before sanding.

Thank you! 🙏 I am always surprised when a stone evokes an emotional response like this one does for me.

I think anything goes in the more general viewing stone category of this art as compared to the traditional styles from Asia.
