A set of scholars desk items, including a Chinese Qing dynasty crystal brush rest in the form of two mountains, Chinese crystal stamp carved with four characters between dragons, and an unusual obelisk written with the Nichiren Buddhist epitaph Na-mu Myoho-ren-ge-kyo in radical script over textured surface, glass or crystal. We have been unable to find a single inclusion in the obelisk, making it either a perfect crystal, suiting a religious object, or glass. The stamp is four immaculately cut characters between two scrollwork dragons (I am not versed in Chinese, but the Japanese reading seems to be Min Zan Chu In). The obelisk is 3 inches tall, the stamp 1-3/4 inches (4 cm) tall and the brush rest roughly 2-1/2 inches (6 cm) long. All pieces are in perfect condition.
