"These are "flowers" of many shapes and sizes. They are made of a thick base into which two long sticks are inserted, this comprises the "stalk". Shaved willow branches are then placed on top every which way to create the "petals". Though diverse in their sizes they do have similarities in that they have the appearance of white fireworks frozen in the middle of the burst. They seem so natural that it is hard to believe they were manmade." (From Shift- JAPAN-BASED INTERNATIONAL ONLINE MAGAZINE FEATURES CREATIVE CULTURE.)
