Due to the delicate appearance of the needles, this juniper bonsai appears to have been collected from Itoigawa City in Niigata Prefecture, home to many famous juniper bonsai. What makes this piece special are the white trunk that twists and turns as it rises from the root base, the fine branches that have become jin, and finally, the unique texture of the leaves that you find on Itoigawa junipers.
