Some of the finest viewing stones ever discovered outside Asia are found in the small Ligurian mountain range in northwestern Italy. These naturally formed stones are from ancient limestone deposits, similar to those that have produced the famed Taihu and Lingbi stones of China. These stones, weather-worn fragments of an extensive deposit known as Palombino limestone, are removed from the earth and cleaned to remove a thin whitish coating on the surface of the stones. They are also similar in appearance to the Furuya stones of Japan when collected in nature.
