Ryoanji Temple
Tsukuba Stone Crate with Freeze-Dried Moss

Ryoanji Temple
Place stones quietly and with your mind, drawing patterns in the sand. This small dry landscape garden is inspired by the Hojo Garden of Ryoanji Temple in Ukyo Ward, Kyoto. Have fun creating rivers and undulating surfaces with the sand. Recreate Ryoanji Temple's 15 Stone Garden, or enjoy creating your own unique garden. You can also draw sand patterns as you like. The tray is made of paulownia wood with a jet-black urethane finish, giving it a durable and luxurious feel. It also makes a great gift! (Please note that each stone will have a different shape.)


A kit that can recreate Ryoanji Temple more realistically
Freeze-dried moss and stone basin

A stone basin engraved with the teachings of contentment
The spirit of knowing contentment. The Buddha's teachings are about "contentment." It would be good if we could suppress our desire to be greedy and wish for more and more, and instead be grateful for the present and think that it is just right.

Ryoanji Temple stone basin
In the garden of Ryoanji Temple on Mount Daiun in Kyoto Prefecture (north of the abbot's chamber), the water reservoir in the middle resembles the Chinese character for "mouth," with other characters arranged around it reading "Ware tada tar koto wo shiru" (I am content only). This is a stylized representation of the Buddhist teaching of contentment.
A miniature version of the stone basin.

| About freeze-dried moss |
In order to preserve the beauty of traditional Japanese moss, we flash-frozen the fresh moss at -35°C, then slowly dried it into a freeze-dried product. The moss is completely uncolored, preserving its natural beauty, allowing you to enjoy its unchanged appearance for a long time without watering. |
