It was created using the wax-model casting technique by the metalwork artist Shichiro Suga, under the pseudonym Getsuho.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe vessel is designed to realistically resemble a cut tree stump, featuring deeply textured bark on the sides and concentric tree rings on the top surface. A highly detailed, three-dimensional snail is positioned near the central opening. A deliberate, deep fissure runs from the top opening down the side, simulating a natural crack in aging wood. The bronze is finished in a dark brown patina. It includes the original signed wooden storage box (tomobako) and a pamphlet.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVessel Dimensions:\u003cbr\u003eHeight: 9.5 cm \/ 3.74 in\u003cbr\u003eWidth: 10.0 cm \/ 3.93 in\u003cbr\u003eDepth: 10.0 cm \/ 3.93 in\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 1086 g \/ 2.39 lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBox Dimensions:\u003cbr\u003eHeight: 13.0 cm \/ 5.11 in\u003cbr\u003eWidth: 13.0 cm \/ 5.11 in\u003cbr\u003eDepth: 13.0 cm \/ 5.11 in\u003c\/center\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- End: AuctivaCounter --\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e.aucCounter a { text-decoration:none; }.aucCounter span:hover { text-decoration:underline; }.aucHiddenCounter { display:none; }.aucCounterOrangeText { color:#FB6D05; font-family:Arial; Font-size:13px; Font-weight:bold; }.aucCounterBlueText { color:#0068ac; Font-family:Arial; Font-size:11px; }\u003c\/style\u003e","brand":"koedo-sun-art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":71348808351997,"sku":"BV780-2","price":175.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/0774\/4253\/files\/57_266d2749-d097-4a3b-971a-e87785a56e75.jpg?v=1790043905","url":"https:\/\/koedo-sun-art.com\/de\/products\/vintage-japanese-takaoka-cast-bronze-vase-tree-stump-snail-getsuho","provider":"koedo-sun-art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
