This charming Victorian table was brought to me by a client along with at least 150 of his own stones to serve as models. I painted about 2/3 of them and also included some from my own collection.

The table stands 27″ tall and is for sale for $650 plus shipping and handling (based on location, cost to determined prior to purchase).
