Hi all, I want to share with you my most recent suisekis, some thatched-hut stones (kuzuya-ishi). I bought them from a nice lady in Sacramento a few weeks ago while passing through on a camping trip in Northern California. These suisekis originally came from a very well-known suiseki enthusiast from Southern California who passed away a few years ago. I consider myself a lucky caretaker of these special stones now. This first stone is 1 and 3/4 inch tall (4.5 cm) and uncut. Any comments or critiques would be greatly appreciated.

Here's the second hut stone. This is one of my favorite. It is 2 inches tall (5.5 cm). It is uncut also.
