Hi all I am new at this viewing stone thing and am corn-fused I think I know that: Daisa is a wood stand, that closely fits the contour of a stone's base. Suiban is a ceramic dish with no holes that holds a stone in water or sand. First of all do I have it correct so far? Second what is a Doban? Thanks in advance Paul

Bronze is the most common, usually with a patina of age. Most doban's have ornamental sides. The sides of doban's are usually higher than that of a suiban. Generally speaking doban's are scarce and expensive.

Thanks for the time Paul
