Rebirth, not only for the effect of the workmanship and therefore of the transformation, but above all because the old owner had defaced his/her beauty with some interventions without anybody logic. (fig. 1-2-3)
For the occasion I have experimented a new type of thread of Italian copper with different characteristics from that Japanese but without nothing to envy to this last. (First of all it is copper to 99%, it is cooked twice exceptional malleability, color like the bark of a rate or that of a juniper, and another important thing doesn't dirty the hands because that powder is not formed that in reality it is very often oxide of metallic elements that can make evil breathing her/it.) After the modeling the future bonsai introduced him so. (fig.12a) Á. this point didn't stay anything else other than to work the dry firewood with gouges and cutter also creating some jins with branches that have not served and a then - jin and at the end to treat her/it with liquid jin. (fig.13 -14-14a-15)
(Fig.9) From this moment I began to work the plant as if it were the beginning of the workmanship. Then cleaning of the bark and the existing vegetation. The part of dry firewood decided to work her/it at the end because I wanted a further and best solution that harmonized with the whole and that it gave naturalness to the sample. Then I put the copper thread to the whole plant. (fig.10-11-11a-12)
In fact on the plant you/he/she had been you practiced from a side what I dare to define the rough draft of a sabamiki. Side that had acquired one "unnatural " ugliness if so you/he/she can be said, without calculating the state of abandonment in which the plant was found. For which passing the first thing that I have had to do to the workmanship has been to look for a new front that, I don't hide you, you/he/she has not been simple to find. However later more than few tests have succeeded in seeing the new front. Besides as I use to do I have usually made a sketch, really to fix the idea. (fig.3) Found the front there was the demand to always create in base to the new inclination, movement and conicity because the structure was rigid as a pole. For which with the use of a saw and the utensil to make cracks I have separated the vein with part of dry wood .(Fig.4-5-6)
