This item is made from preserved Japanese camellia leaves (specially treated with chemicals and colorings that are harmless to live wood) and carefully woven one by one. <Utility Model Registered No. 3222297> ◆ The domestically grown camellia is made from Tomiyako pine. Because it uses domestically grown camellia leaves, it rarely withers, curls, or wilts, a problem common with imported camellias, and maintains its beautiful appearance for a long time.
No watering is required, so it is clean and odorless. Changing the water, which can be a time-consuming task, is eliminated, especially for high-mounted Shinto altars. Unlike artificial flowers (silk flowers), this is made from preserved real live wood, so you can offer it to the gods without hesitation.
The pine and mizuhiki string create a sakaki tree that evokes New Year's celebrations.
Size (approx.): 32cm high x 14cm wide. *As this is a handmade item, slight variations in size may occur. *Do not water.
