I love bonsai.

Magnificent nature expressed in a small pot.
The majestic atmosphere created by
the harmony of natural and artificial beauty.
The amount of time and effort it takes to grow a bonsai, and the joy I feel when it responds.

However, after the birth of my child,
my life changed to one where I am busy with child-rearing and housework.
I began to find it somewhat difficult to manage my bonsai, which requires me to pay attention to every single branch and leaf.

I was sad that I could no longer enjoy my life with bonsai, which I loved so much.
I felt like I had become a trivial person and was depressed.

However, I suddenly thought,
Of course, if I could enjoy the time and effort,
I would be able to enjoy the bonsai.
Of course, I would be happy if I could enjoy the time and effort.
It would be wonderful if I could lead a careful life.

But it doesn't have to be that way, does it?
Shouldn't we have the freedom to just enjoy the beautiful appearance of bonsai?

This is where Shirabe's Modern Bonsai was born,
a product that specializes in the design of bonsai.

“No matter how far you go, it's still a fake.”
“It's not as good as the real thing.”
"The life of a bonsai is what makes it valuable."
Some may think so.

But I want to breathe new life into this modern bonsai as a piece of art.
Even if it does not breathe. Even if it never grows.

In the midst of our hurt lives,
I hope to bring you such beautiful moments that will warm your heart when they suddenly come into view.
