AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Juniper Bonsai (Juniperus) – Compact Shohin with Natural Shari – 18 cm

Juniper Bonsai (Juniperus sp.)

Offered for auction is a refined shohin-sized Juniper bonsai, a classic evergreen species highly valued in Japanese bonsai art for its resilience, longevity, and ability to develop dramatic deadwood features.

This compact specimen presents a well-balanced and dynamic silhouette, with a gently flowing trunk line enhanced by natural shari (exposed deadwood) that adds age, character, and a strong sense of maturity despite its small size. The contrast between the living veins and the bleached deadwood is particularly expressive and visually striking.

The foliage is dense, healthy, and finely textured, forming compact pads that create depth and movement. The overall composition evokes a tree shaped by harsh natural conditions, perfectly scaled for shohin display.

The bonsai is planted in a rectangular ceramic pot, harmoniously proportioned to the tree and suitable for both exhibition and private collection.

A refined and expressive piece, ideal for collectors and enthusiasts seeking a characterful juniper bonsai with strong natural presence in a compact format.

• Species: Juniperus (Juniper)
Height: 18 cm
• Trunk diameter: approx. 3 cm
Canopy width: 28 cm
