Chinese Cloisonne/Hardstone Bonsai Flowers. Chinese hardstone bonsai flowers in cloisonne vase.
Bonsai hardstone flower arrangements, also known as gemstone trees or jade trees, are intricate decorative pieces that combine the principles of bonsai with the artistry of Chinese stone carving. Rather than using living plants, these arrangements are crafted from semi-precious stones such as jade, carnelian, agate, or quartz, with each petal, leaf, and branch meticulously shaped and assembled to resemble blossoming trees or floral bouquets. Set into ceramic pots filled with crushed stone or resin to mimic soil, they offer a permanent and stylized interpretation of nature’s beauty. These ornamental arrangements are prized for their vibrant colors, symbolic meanings—such as peonies for wealth or plum blossoms for endurance—and their harmonious balance between natural form and human craftsmanship, making them popular in both traditional and modern interiors.
Size: 17 1/2 x 10 1/2 x 18 1/2 in.
