Description
This is a rare Guanmao Zuoshandiao walnut, a naturally deformed single walnut from the Guanmao lineage. Its most distinctive feature is the natural eagle-beak shape, formed by a thick main ridge extending forward and curving downward.
The body retains the classic Guanmao structure with a tall profile, broad edges, a full belly, and a relatively flat base. The surface features rugged dragon-scale and qilin-style texture, with deep, pronounced ridges and raised patterns.
The beak is naturally formed and slightly irregular, with no artificial reshaping or carving. Each piece is unique, making naturally well-formed examples particularly desirable to collectors.
With regular play, the walnut gradually develops a deep jujube-red patina and can become increasingly translucent and lustrous over time.
This is the exact piece shown in the photos.
