"Solacubes" are small paperweights manufactured by Usagi no Nedoko Inc. in Kyoto, Japan. They showcase beautifully preserved plant specimens encased in a transparent cube, highlighting their natural beauty. Collected and carefully selected by hand, the flowers and plant parts are dried using a series of sophisticated techniques before being embedded in clear acrylic resin. Each finished piece is then individually polished.

The globe thistle is also known as Ruritama thistle—the name derives from its round, lapis-lazuli-colored, jewel-like (ruritama) flowers. Its spherical flower head consists of numerous spiky individual blossoms. When these open, the globe thistle transforms into a soft, fluffy sphere.
