The wrist rest provided a surface for the arm to rest upon and helped prevent smudging the ink. This particular wrist rest is bamboo and inscribed with a detailed landscape scene. The landscape includes mountains, trees, and a river. The wrist rest would make an excellent addition to any collection of Chinese art.
