In this arrangement, I wanted to show both the young pine cones that were just coming out as well as the big pine branch where they were attached to. By disassembling and re-assembling the big pine branch, both could be shown in an arrangement.
By the way, we used very old hida konro (a tabletop charcoal grill traditionally from the city of Hida in Gifu Prefecture) to hold the arrangement.
Here is the whole arrangement.
I hope you like it. —Miyako
