A boulder that shows its history: a handbuilt rock-form vessel in the 1848–1899 run whose third photo is a deliberate close-up of an open crack running up from the base — wider than a hairline, plainly presented rather than hidden. The listing puts the seam on record; this page does the same and characterizes it no further.
Why photograph the crack? The store chose to show it up close, so the split is part of the piece’s documentation — an open seam from the base, visible and unexplained. Piece 1857 of 10,000, listed at $18.57.
