Juniper bonsai (Juniperus) - Height (Tree): 20 cm - Depth (Tree): 37 cm - Japan

For sale, a magnificent and expressive specimen of Juniperus Procumbens 'Nana' (Japanese dwarf juniper) prepared with the professional Tanuki technique (Phoenix Graft), which involves artistically integrating the living plant with natural dry wood added to the composition.

This model stands out for its dramatic, dynamic cascading (Kengai) or semi-cascading stance, ideal for those seeking a piece with strong visual impact and a wild character.

Craftsmanship and Aesthetics

• The Tanuki Technique: The living vein of the juniper merges and gracefully entwines around a sculpted piece of dry wood that extends sinuously outward and downward. The deadwood shows deep grain and a weathered appearance, creating a perfect contrast with the compact green of the needles.

• The Design: The crown develops laterally to form a dense, healthy "plateau" of foliage, then projects downward with a main branch that emphasizes the cascading movement.

• Trunk and Proportions: With a compact height of 20 cm and a substantial crown width of 37 cm, the plant expresses great maturity and visual stability, balanced by a solid 5 cm trunk base.
