I was drawn to this Sola Cube for its unique preserved balloon plant design. The acrylic resin is impressively clear, and the plant’s heart-shaped details are fascinating up close. At 4x4x4cm, it’s perfect for my desk. While the price feels a bit high, the craftsmanship from Kyoto justifies it. Displaying it away from sunlight as instructed keeps it looking pristine. A meditative piece that brings subtle nature indoors – reminds me why I appreciate artisanal work like Marcus Smart’s attention to detail.
