1''/3cm Mt. Fuji, Japan, Steel

Mt. Fuji is an icon of Japan. Fuji-san is its highest point, one of the Three Holy Mountains, on the UNESCO World Heritage List, and a designated Historic Site. Its near-perfect volcanic cone stands 3776m above sea level, and dominates the 30km-wide clearing in which it is centered. Fuji's proximity to the Shinkansen (bullet train) route between Tokyo and Osaka and its five nearby lakes provide popular views of this historic and scenic peak.

Our model of Mount Fuji originates with data from NASA's SRTM mission and includes the summit and surrounding 237 square kilometers of terrain. The North border includes the Sajikiyama and Maruyama mounds and portions of the toll road, at the West is Futatsuyama, just inside the South boundary is Kansuyama and the nearby golf course, while the East side ends near the hills above Fujikogen golf course.

Metal TinyMtn models are available in many precious solid and plated metals, but are most affordable in one of the varieties of "Steel." This model is in "Steel," which is 3D printed 420 Stainless Steel infused with bronze, and has a final composition of approximately 60% steel and 40% bronze. It is offered in matte and polished, and a variety of finishes. When you receive the model it will be ready for display and will not need any other care. "Steel" models are strong and dense, but not as strong as solid, machined steel. Read more about this popular material here.

These models have been optimized for the above metals as well as some non-metal materials, and are not offered in other materials for strength or cost reasons. If you need one in another material or are unable to locate it on the site, please contact us and we'd be happy to help.
