Cacti naturally store a lot of water in their bodies.
The body of water cactus is a cool cactus that is transparent and you can feel the stored water.
It is a mysterious existence that grows directly from the surface of the water.
It grows quietly while reflecting the surrounding scenery and blending in.
Water cactus is a modeled work made of slightly bluish transparent resin.
I made it with cactus and black kokeshi as a motif.
Lightly painted with transparent paint.
I planted it in a flowerpot that I made myself with white mortar.
The vessel may have cracks or chips to give a sense of the passage of time.
At the tip of the cactus, there is a small Φ1mm hole that is not conspicuous so that dried flowers with thin stems can grow.
*For those who wish, we will send dried flowers like the one used in the photo shoot.
Material, transparent resin, mortar, sand,
Overall size: 135mm high, 80mm wide, 80mm deep
*This is a modeled work by Keiji Jinnai, a model artist echidna.
All handmade so no two are exactly alike
Please understand that it is not a perfect product like an industrial product.
*Do not place in places with high temperatures or in direct sunlight.
*Transparent resin may gradually turn yellow over time or when exposed to strong sunlight.
Please understand it as an antique taste like amber.
*The transparent resin contains fine air bubbles due to the characteristics of the material.
*This is a very delicate piece. Please note that the cactus part may be damaged if you squeeze it strongly or drop it.
*As a taste, there are bubbles, chips and unevenness peculiar to mortar! White mortar may react with the ingredients and turn light brown. Please enjoy it as a taste.
