This antique stone trough is from rural Southwest China, hand-carved and antique with a century of weathering. It was used as a piglet feeder in farming villages for decades, estimated to originate from the early 20th century of the Qing Dynasty. Hand-chiselled from a whole piece of granite stone by local stone craftsmen, it possesses a uniquely rustic charm. This historic work of art can be versatile in landscape design; you can use it as a fountain base, a planter, a bird bath, a water basin and a dog drinking station. The trough is unique and sells as it is. Approximate Age: 1900 Qing Dynasty. Dimension: 25126.5 Inches.
