A very unusual dome shaped cast iron weight from Shanxi Province with distinct Chinese characters on both sides. Antique cast iron weights from China of this age and condition are very rarely found in this shape. The clear Chinese characters cast as part of this weight make this an even more desirable object. Complete with custom iron stand.
