■Standard Experience (Premium Basic Plan)

The standard experience is offered at JPY 55,000 per person and lasts approximately two hours.
What you create is not simply a bonsai, but a living artwork shaped through dialogue between nature, form, and time.

Each bonsai is paired with a one-of-a-kind vessel created by an artist, transcending the conventional notion of bonsai pots.
These vessels are conceived not merely as containers, but as independent expressions, designed to exist in harmony with the living tree.
Tree and vessel stand as equals, shaping a single, unified presence.

Guided by an experienced bonsai artisan, you will engage in pruning and composition.
You may choose to shape the bonsai yourself, or entrust part of the process to the artisan—allowing the piece to emerge through conversation and shared sensibility.
In every approach, attention is given to balance, proportion, and the character of both tree and vessel.

Within a quiet, contemplative setting, you will encounter the rhythm of growth and form.
The result is not a finished object, but a living presence that continues to evolve over time, carrying the memory of this experience into the future.
