Summary

Sakura or cherry blossom. You've probably seen them before, those pink blossomed stout trees that lighten the landscape. I've been fortunate to experience them in Japan, but they're also in DC, Seattle, Portland, etc.

They've inspired so many pieces of artwork and now I bring them onto my titanium dice in a variety of finishes that I hope others will appreciate too.

These dice are machined from grade 5 titanium and some are offered with a sakura blossom engraved on pip side 1. A variety of finishes are included in this project embracing those who love color, and some of the more traditional Japanese tastes (minimal/natural).

These finishes are:
  1. Two tone Sakura
    This finish is blasted, stone washed, two tone anodized in sakura pink with a sakura engraved on pip side 1
  2. Weathered Sakura
    This finish is blasted and weathered single tone anodized in sakura pink with a sakura engraved on pip side 1
  3. Blasted Sakura
    This finish is blasted for a minimalist sakura look. It is matte in appearance.
  4. Weathered Sakura Pink
    This finish is blasted and weathered, conventional dice anodized in sakura pink
  5. Two Tone Sakura Pink
    This finish is blasted, stone washed, two tone conventional dice anodized in sakura pink
