Bonsai Tree

🏷️ 10281-1🎨 Botanicals📅 2021🧱 878 partsAdvanced

The LEGO Botanicals Bonsai Tree (10281-1) recreates the ancient art of bonsai through an 878-piece model. This tranquil build allows for customisation, featuring interchangeable crowns of vibrant green leaves or delicate pink cherry blossoms. A closer inspection reveals a clever detail: each pink blossom incorporates tiny frog elements, adding a unique, organic texture. The finished Bonsai Tree rests within a black rectangular pot, positioned on a sophisticated, slatted wood-effect LEGO stand. This display piece is a distinguished addition to any office or home, embodying the serene aesthetic of the LEGO Botanical Collection. The leaf elements, made from plant-based plastic, contribute to its natural appearance.
