CARVING DESIGN PERSPECTIVE EARTHEN WALL

THE MASTERPRICE'S FRAME


Enclosing the monochromatic space, 180cm high oil-earthen wall is one of the elements that make this stone garden a true masterpiece.

The wall is referred to as "oil-earthen wall," because it is made of clay mixed with rapeseed oil. It shades from the glare and the heat of the sun reflecting off the garden’s white sand. The wall withstood the test of time, not giving in to the harsh seasons and the environmental changes.

Moreover, on the side of the wall facing the garden the ground level is 80 cm higher than on the back of the wall. It is said, that this engineering technique makes the wall even more stable.
