stone basin
Carved granite vessel
A stone basin is a bowl-shaped container carved or constructed from stone, used to hold water or other liquids.
Stone basins appear in gardens as birdbaths or decorative water features, in religious contexts for ritual washing or baptism, and historically as practical vessels for washing or storage.
A moss-covered stone basin collected rainwater in the temple courtyard.
