Description
China is the homeland of the potted or miniature landscape. The art began about 1,200 years ago during the Tang Dynasty (618-907 A.D.) and has been known under various names. An indoor decoration of refined taste over long ages, it has been praised as " wordless poetry and sculptured painting".

The miniature landscape has become quite popular today and can be classified into two major categories: miniature rockeries and miniature trees.

The rocks used for the potted rockery are those that easily suck up water, such as sandstone, stratified rock and stalactite. A chosen piece is cut and carved into the shape in a flat pot with water. As the rock is moist, green moss grows on its surface. Some miniature tree may also be planted in a crevice of the rock, which is sometimes decorated with a little pagoda, bridge or pavilion. A tiny sail or two on the water will complete an enchanting landscape with mountain and river.
