This is the best of Laoshan greenstone, smooth and delicate, dark green as Dai, natural magic, creating it, since the late Qing Dynasty, the literati handed over, and gave it a "legend of painting stone".
"The shape is square and the textures are layered, much like the artistic effect of stacking high and folding belts in landscape paintings." Shi Yuan, director of the Craft Research Department of the Shanghai Museum, introduced that the small square pot stone is the best piece of study room appreciation stone collected by Shangbo, and it is also a representative work in the current Chinese literature appreciation stone.
"Square Pot" is one of the three immortal mountains in the legendary East China Sea, titled "Little Square Kettle", which means the literati desk immortal mountain, which is funny and fun.

Gao Fenghan, who has a cool life and loves to enjoy strange stones. In the eleventh year of Qianlong (1746), Bing Yin, Gao Fenghan was 64 years old at the time, and encountered this Fanglaoshan green stone. He has been disabled in his right hand for many years, and he has always used his left arm to make calligraphy and painting and seal seals, which is unique. The unpolished stone ushered in the highlight of its life.
Among the stones that have been inscribed by Gao Fenghan, the "Small Square Kettle" stone is a piece of stone and inscription that is impeccable, and it has aesthetic commonalities with the block stone under Gao Fenghan's daily brush.

Shi Yuan introduced that Wu Hufan's painting method is small green, no bone as the bottom, drawing its shape with ink, drawing its texture, covering the stone green on the bottom of the ink, and out is dark green, very close to the color of Laoshan green itself.
After Qian Jingtang, the stone and painting were collected by collectors Li Yanwu and Wang Yiping respectively. After that, the painting and Shi Yanjin sword merged. Because Gao Fenghan and Wang Yi were on average from Jiaodong, and this stone was from Jiaodong Haiyu, Wang Yiping cherished this stone and painting very much, and also took "Xiaofang Pot Room" as the name of the book. In 1998, when he learned that his collection of "small square pot" stones aroused the interest of overseas stone collectors, he decided to donate a stone and a painting that accompanied him to the Shanghai Museum.
