Just like the real ones: insects and plants made of wood

The amazing miniature sculptures are created by Japanese Tooru Fukuda. Glory to the sculptor was brought by a wooden board, with sparkling drops of water on its surface. What is surprising, you ask. The fact is that everything is not as simple as it seems at first glance. In fact, the water droplets are not real. They are crafted from expertly crafted wood. This was made possible thanks to a unique technology that Fakuda invented on his own.

Tohru so harmoniously combines traditional Japanese inlays with wooden fragments, resulting in luxurious three-dimensional sculptures of animals and insects.

The artist was born in Hokkaido in 1994. Tohru began to engage in creativity at school. Therefore, by the time the registration was completed, he already clearly understood who he saw himself in life. For further education, the craftsman chose the Higher School of Crafts and Arts (Hokkaido Otoineppu). After that he graduated from the Kyoto College of Crafts.

In his works, the master plays with jewelry with a natural palette and wood texture. Naturally growing trees, which he never paints, become the priority when choosing a material for the sculptor.

The process of creating sculptures is very time consuming. The author gave it his own name "three-dimensional wood incrustation". Fukuda treats the blocks of wood so skillfully that it feels like the insects are really alive and just sat down to rest on a wooden base before the next flight.

The master's works are displayed in the best galleries in China. And fans buy wooden insects to decorate the interior of their home. On our site decar items for every taste are presented in the section "Home, interior".
