Description from the seller

Juniper Bonsai Shohin 20cm Wide 40cm Trunk 4cm Carved Deadwood Jin Shari Pot

COLLECTION PIECE: COMPACT JUNIPER WITH STUNNING MULTI-TOOTH CANOPY AND JIN

For sale is an exceptional Juniper bonsai, a unique piece standing out for the extraordinary width of its crown relative to its very compact height. As clearly documented by the meticulous photo set (from image_51.png to image_57.png), this specimen embodies the essence of the naturalistic style, displaying the maturity and branch movement typical of trees exposed to coastal or mountain weather.

The standout feature of this bonsai is its incredible asymmetric proportion: with a height of only 20 cm, the horizontal development of the branches reaches a width of no less than 40 cm (image_51.png, image_57.png). From the massive trunk of 4 cm in diameter flows a magnificent living, twisted vein (image_53.png) that culminates in the center in a dense and evocative aerial sculpture of dead wood (Jin). The macro details (image_54.png, image_55.png) highlight the beautiful grooves and grain of the aged wood worked, creating a spectacular color contrast with the vibrant, healthy green of the foliage.

DIMENSIONS AND TECHNICAL DETAILS:
• Trunk width: 4 cm (Massive, with living grain and evident twist at the base)
• Total plant height: only 20 cm (Wonderful Shohin / small Kifu compactness)
• Overall crown width: well 40 cm (Developed laterally with dense and vigorous branches)
• Pot size: 7 x 17 x 17 cm
• Pot type: Deep round pot in black/dark brown, essential and sturdy, perfect to visually counterbalance the horizontal spread of the crown.

HEALTH STATUS AND AESTHETIC ADVANTAGES:
- Exceptional vigor: The scale foliage is dense, clean, and in full vegetative growth (image_51.png).
- Movement and stability: Structure set with professional mounting wires still in place to maintain the stability of the branches (detail in image_53.png).

SHIPPING AND PROFESSIONAL RIGID PACKAGING:
Ultra-fast, trackable, and 100% insured shipping across Italy and Europe with a courier service.
Given the incredible horizontal breadth of the crown (40 cm) relative to the compact body of the plant, this bonsai requires high-engineering protective packaging. The pot will be securely anchored to the bottom of the crate to prevent any movement. All side foliage and the delicate central Jin will be isolated, supported, and protected with premium soft cushioning material, ensuring that this splendid work of art arrives intact and ready for your collection.
