Japanese artist crafts stunning falcon sculpture out of broccoli using Thai fruit carving

A Japanese Twitter user’s recent post has gotten a lot of attention online.

The user (@gaku_carving) specializes in Thai fruit carving.

Thai fruit carving is the art of carving vegetables and fruits into various shapes like flowers, animals, etc.

Here’s a short clip from (@gaku_carving) demonstrating the art form on an apple.

Pretty cool, right?

That’s not the post though.

Let’s see what the latest creation was that made his daughter burst out, "Wooooah!"

Twitter user (@gaku_carving) carved a falcon out of a broccoli crown.

The contributor carefully carved the broccoli stem into the shape of a falcon’s head and wings, prompting his daughter to praise his latest work.

Over 286,000 Twitter users have liked his post and many continue to heap praise upon him.

  • It’s amazing! His daughter must be so proud of him.
  • I am a farmer. I was surprised by the delicacy of the enlarged image. I’d like to see more of your work!
  • It looks like it’s going to fly away any moment. I never knew broccoli could be so cool…

(@gaku_carving) says he started Thai fruit carving because he was "fascinated by the beauty of the patterns carved on vegetables and fruits."

It’s great to see this beautiful Thai tradition has spread to Japan and now even more people can appreciate it thanks to the contributor! You can also check out their equally epic broccoli fish sculpture that has been turning heads online!
