Keido display books
Sold - Searching for new copies
A set of three highly saught after books on Bonsai display aesthetics, they are considered to be the bible for students of display.
Divided into three volumes, one for Bonsai, one for Suiseki and one for "kusamono" bonsai, each gives over 60 individual displays which are divided into five categories, the four seasons and also New Year. Studying each display you can get a real feeling for the characteristics of each season and learn the key points of the one of the most misunderstood areas of the art of bonsai. This is the definitive guide to the art of display from the creator of the Keido school, Katayama Tei-ichi who taught many of the modern display masters including the current head of the Keido school Uhaku Sudo and my master Kunio Kobayashi.
Each display is accompanied with a page of text describing the objects and the meaning but sadly this is ALL JAPANESE
Published in 1986, these books are still in very good condition except for some slight moisture damage. They have not been opened since publishing so they are effectively in new conditon. Copies of these higly saught after books have been sold on Ebay for almost $300, this is your opportunity to purchase them at the market price in Japan.
