{"product_id":"japanese-zen-gardens","title":"Japanese Zen Gardens","description":"\u003ch2\u003eA golden crane and two koi carry the old wisdom of Japanese zen gardens into one small tray\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack wood frames a square of white sand. Curved lines flow around the corners like a slow current. Two small koi swim through it, one at each end, as if they followed the water from the start. A golden paper crane rests near an old stone bridge. Further on, a dark pebble, a round ball of moss and a stone lantern complete the scene. Much of the sand stays empty. In Japan, that empty space is called \u003cstrong\u003ema\u003c\/strong\u003e, and it matters as much as what fills it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe crane is an \u003cstrong\u003eorizuru\u003c\/strong\u003e, the origami bird of hope. Legend says that folding a thousand of them makes a wish come true. The \u003cstrong\u003ekoi\u003c\/strong\u003e stands for courage, because it swims against the current until it reaches its goal. Together they turn this tray into a quiet wish for strength and peace. Rake the lines around the koi, then smooth them out and start again. A few minutes are enough to clear the head before a call or at the end of a long day. It brings calm to a desk, a bedside table or a reading nook.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Wood tray, sand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 8.5 x 6.9 x 0.5 in (21.5 x 17.5 x 1.2 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Black frame, white sand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes: Tray, sand, 2 koi figures, golden paper crane, bridge, stone lantern, moss ball, black pebble, rake\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Japanese Decor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67764936015924,"sku":"Japanese Zen Gardens#Default Title","price":85.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0725\/8436\/4084\/files\/japanese-zen-gardens.webp?v=1792531660","url":"https:\/\/japanese-decor.com\/products\/japanese-zen-gardens","provider":"Japanese Decor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
