This handcrafted "SAKURA" (Japanese Cherry Blossom) engraved stone is a masterpiece crafted by Japanese artisans following a 300-year-old tradition.
The exquisite stone is meticulously hand-cut in Japan using the Kohshu Kiseki** tradition. Skilled craftsmen devote hours of artisanship to create beautiful and unique designs in the stone by hand. Currently, only two craftsmen in Japan practice this engraving art, making these stones exceptionally rare and nearly impossible to find outside of Japan!
Adding to the exclusivity, getting these gemstones is quite challenging. I had to wait four months for them to arrive, emphasizing the dedication and effort it takes, even for a Japanese like me.
The SAKURA holds deep cultural significance in Japan, symbolizing the ephemeral beauty of life and celebrated widely in poetry, literature, and art. By capturing SAKURA in this stone, the artisan has immortalized its beauty.
This handcrafted stone serves as an ideal gift for special occasions such as engagements, birthdays, or anniversaries, and is bound to be cherished by the recipient for years to come.
