AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Juniper Bonsai – Compact Shohin Specimen with Deadwood – 17 cm
Offered here is a refined Juniper bonsai, compact and expressive, carefully trained to evoke the character of an aged mountain tree in miniature form. Despite its small size, this specimen displays strong presence, mature structure, and refined proportions, making it ideal for collectors of shohin bonsai or for display in intimate settings.
The bonsai features a solid trunk measuring approximately 4 cm in diameter, showing good taper and natural movement. The trunk emerges powerfully from the soil, conveying stability and age, and develops into a balanced branching structure that supports a compact, harmonious canopy.
A distinctive element of this bonsai is the presence of natural deadwood (jin), carefully preserved and integrated into the design. The deadwood adds visual drama and authenticity, recalling the effects of time and harsh natural conditions, and contrasts beautifully with the healthy, dense green foliage.
The foliage is compact, well-distributed, and healthy, with fine ramification already established. The crown forms a coherent silhouette, offering depth and three-dimensionality despite the modest scale of the tree. The overall design reflects a naturalistic style, with a low, horizontal development that enhances the sense of age and resilience.
The bonsai is planted in an elegant ceramic pot (approx. 5 × 8 × 10 cm), sober and proportionate, which complements the tree without overpowering it. The surface is finished with natural moss, enhancing the aesthetic presentation and reinforcing the feeling of a miniature landscape.
