Juniperus Procumbens 'Nana' bonsai, created by the Tanuki Phoenix Graft technique, with an 11 cm trunk base, 20 cm height, 35 cm canopy width, in an outdoor evergreen specimen from Japan (Giappone), presented in a cream-glazed rectangular pot (20 x 12 x 4 cm) and featuring preserved deadwood and vibrant green foliage.
Description from the seller
Up for auction is a high-impact Juniperus Procumbens 'Nana' created using the expert Tanuki (Phoenix Graft) technique. This specimen is a masterclass in proportions, featuring a monumental trunk base that gives the tree the appearance of an ancient, weather-beaten giant, all within a compact Shohin size.
Styling and Aesthetics:
• The Trunk: The defining feature of this bonsai is its massive 11 cm trunk width. The living juniper is skillfully integrated with a piece of highly expressive deadwood. The contrast between the dark living vein and the white, sculptural wood (Jin/Shari) is visually stunning.
• Proportions: Standing only 20 cm tall, the tree has an incredible 'taper' and a powerful presence. The canopy is dense and healthy, spreading 35 cm wide, creating a perfectly balanced triangular silhouette.
• Foliage: Vibrant green, compact needles show excellent vigor and health.
Pot and Presentation:
The bonsai is presented in a rectangular cream-glazed ceramic pot. The light color and minimalist design of the pot are chosen to highlight the dark tones of the bark and the intricate details of the deadwood without distraction.
