Yamahisa Artificial Sakaki (Japanese Sacred Tree) - Silk Flower, Small Size, Pair (6 Stems Total),

Unlike fresh or preserved sakaki leaves, silk flower (artificial) sakaki branches never wilt, eliminating the need for water changes and other maintenance. They are odorless and maintain a clean appearance even in hot weather. Recommended not only for homes but also for company office altars.

This is ideal for those who feel uneasy about sakaki wilting quickly, those who are concerned about replacing branches at high altars, and company staff who find the regular purchase and replacement of sakaki burdensome.

Although artificial, the leaves have thickness, a realistic sheen and luster, and even the veins are reproduced, giving them a lifelike appearance when offered at an altar. Each bundle uses three branches, for a total of six branches, resulting in a voluminous arrangement with numerous leaves.

Each bundle is handcrafted in Japan (Yamakyu, Kawagoe City, Saitama Prefecture), with the leaves carefully shaped and assembled. The stems are secured with floral tape, making them less likely to get caught in vases and easier to use.We've paid close attention to the appearance of the sakaki branches when placed in a vase, and to allow use with larger sakaki stands, we've included a cylindrical sponge for securing the vase. *Vase (sakaki stand) is not included. Please prepare one separately.

The sakaki branches are treated with CT catalyst processing, providing deodorizing, antibacterial, and air-purifying effects, as well as an anti-fouling effect that prevents dust from accumulating on the sakaki. Unlike photocatalytic processing, it is effective even in places without sunlight. Size: Height 33cm x Width 20cm (approx. 23cm above water)

Sakaki is an evergreen tree that flourishes, and its name is said to have meanings such as "flourishing tree," "prosperous tree," and "tree that marks the boundary between gods and humans."
