This Larix decidua bonsai embodies the classic Chokkan (formal upright) style with perfect balance and quiet authority. Its trunk rises straight and true, clothed in deeply textured, time-worn bark that tells of many seasons endured. The tree’s mature branching structure spreads evenly from the base to the apex, creating a natural rhythm that speaks of age and refinement.

Adding to its expressive character are beautifully weathered jin, sculpted remnants of once-living branches that now stand as symbols of resilience and impermanence. Together, these elements form a composition of strength and serenity, a living monument to nature’s artistry, shaped with respect and precision.
