AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Juniper Bonsai Mame – Compact Raft-Style Composition with Natural Deadwood
Offered is a refined Juniper bonsai (Juniperus sp.), presented in an elegant mame-size composition with strong character and a distinctly natural appearance.
This specimen is characterized by a horizontal, raft-style structure, evoking an ancient juniper clinging to rocky terrain. The composition shows a mature main trunk line with multiple secondary trunks emerging organically, creating depth, movement, and visual balance.
The trunk measures approx. 4 cm in diameter, displaying excellent texture, aged bark, and areas of natural deadwood (jin) that enhance the sense of age and resilience. The exposed roots and surface root structure are well integrated into the design, reinforcing the impression of a wild, naturally shaped tree.
The foliage is dense, compact, and healthy, with a rich green color typical of well-maintained juniper. The pads are already defined, forming a harmonious silhouette while still offering potential for future refinement.
The tree is planted in a rectangular glazed ceramic pot, green in color, which complements the foliage and emphasizes the natural character of the composition. The soil surface is partially covered with moss, adding refinement and exhibition appeal.
This bonsai is ideal for collectors of mame and shohin bonsai, as well as for enthusiasts seeking a compact yet expressive juniper with strong natural aesthetics.
