Granite Basins

Granite basins date back to the earliest Shinto shrines where they held water used for ritual cleansing. The tea ceremony, infused with the spirit of Zen, required a purity of mind and body. To this end, stone basins were later included in tea gardens so t hat guests could symbolically dip their hands before entering the tea house. Stone Forest has assembled an outstanding collection of Stone basins, any of which can be transformed into fountains.
