Description from the seller

Juniper Bonsai Shohin 15cm Masterpiece Massive Trunk 7cm Jin Deadwood Pot

EXEMPLARY SHO HIN MASTERPIECE - MASSIVE 7CM TRUNK & JIN IN A SPIRAL

For sale a rare, visually striking bonsai art piece: a Juniper (Juniperus) in a compact Shohin/Kifu style, featuring breathtaking proportions. As certified by the complete photo set (from image_62.png to image_69.png), the plant expresses a maturity and dramatic aesthetic that can be found only in top-level specimens.

The absolute strength of this juniper is the ratio between trunk thickness and height. With a massive base of 7 cm and a height of only 15 cm, the plant boasts an exaggerated conicity and an exceptional visual stability (nebari). At the center of the scene (beautifully captured in the details of image_65.png and image_68.png), emerges an ancient dry wood core (Jin/Shari) incredibly dynamic, twisting into a spiral around itself like a natural sculpture. The asymmetrical design is completed by a dead lateral branch extending to the right (image_64.png) and a dense green cloud developing to the left.

DIMENSIONS AND TECHNICAL DETAILS:
• Base trunk width: 7 cm (Thickness worthy of a true masterpiece, very rare at such a compact height!)
• Total plant height: only 15 cm (Perfect Shohin proportion with high visual impact)
• Overall crown width: 35 cm (Horizontally developed with mature and asymmetrical branches)
• Pot dimensions: 6 x 15 x 19 cm
• Pot type: Rectangular, dark glazed ceramic pot, solid and deep, perfect to visually support and properly hydrate such a powerful base.

HEALTH STATUS AND AESTHETIC PAVINGS:
- Exceptional vigor: Shoots are in perfect health, clean, strong, with a bright, vivid green tone (macro detail of the foliage in image_69.png).
- Competition-grade details: The bark texture and the veins of the central deadwood (image_68.png) are mature and ready to be highlighted by discerning collectors.

SHIPPING AND PROFESSIONAL RIGID PACKAGING:
Ultra-fast, trackable, and 100% guaranteed shipping within Italy and Europe via express courier (shipping cost not included, listed separately).
Given the invaluable artistic value of this Shohin, characterized by a low center of gravity but with branches and outward-projecting jin extending laterally by 35 cm, a special ultra-protective packaging protocol will be applied. The heavy 19 cm pot will be mechanically secured to the base of the package to prevent any jolt. The entire canopy and the extremely delicate spiral deadwood in the center will be wrapped and protected by layers of high-quality soft cushioning material, ensuring the plant arrives at its destination without losing a single needle."
