Bonsai Figurines

Bonsai Figurines

Bonsai accessories are not everyone's preferred look as they believe the tree should stand alone in all its glory.  However, I like the effect they have on the overall tree.  I am of the feeling that they give scale and you are free to construct your own message.  

Penjing is an art where old fishermen, tea drinkers, scholars reading a book, a bridge or small temple are included in among dwarfed trees.  

At the moment I must say I enjoy positioning an old man reading a book under a tree.  Everyone has their opinion but the main point is to go with what you like.  I hope you enjoy looking at some of my bonsai accessories.  There are even a few that I have made myself!
