AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Sculptural Bonsai on Centuries-Old Wood (75 cm) – Forest / Monumental Tanuki
For sale an impressive natural artwork and scenographic piece: a forest-style composition (Yose-ue) integrated within a colossal trunk of centuries-old wood worn by time.
The imposing ancient-wood support, unusually wide at the base (38 cm), features natural veins, cavities and crevices in which the conifers have been rooted and shaped, creating the illusion of a centuries-old mountain landscape where trees grow directly among rocks and dry timber.
Measurements and Technical Details:
Total height (including plantings and wood): 75 cm
Maximum plant/base width: 38 cm
Overall crown width: 47 cm
Container size: Rooting/Growth box 7 cm (height) x 30 cm x 40 cm
Style: Sculptural Composition / Tanuki / Forest on Monumental Dead Wood
Strengths:
1. Century-Old Wood with Great Presence: An exceptional ancient trunk with striking grain, natural cavities and knots, functioning as a true vegetal sculpture.
2. Perspective and Depth: Planting at different heights inside the wooden monolith creates a three-dimensional effect and a strong sense of age.
3. Unique Display Piece: Ideal for collectors seeking a garden element or exhibition space with strong visual impact. The plant is housed in a cultivation box to promote full acclimation before transfer to the final display slab or pot.
