Nejikan    

Nejikan style wants to reproduce plants, to which nature has given an old and twisted aspect through continuous weather events like frequent storms.
It is a difficult style requiring great attention to save the health of the tree: it is essential not to cut the stream of sap during the shaping operations; it is easy, as a matter of fact, to damage the bark vessels.
The spiral form of the trunk, therefore, must allow foliage vitality.
