Welcome to my listing.
This is an authentic Japanese bonsai pot crafted by Yamako, showcasing the exceptional quality of Tokoname ware.
Tokoname is one of Japan's Six Ancient Kilns and is highly celebrated by bonsai enthusiasts worldwide for its high-quality clay and excellent breathability, which promotes healthy root growth.
It features a classic rectangular design with an unglazed finish, giving it a heavy, stable, and solid appearance.
This traditional style is an excellent choice for a variety of bonsai trees, particularly conifer species like pines or junipers, as it beautifully frames your presentation.
Please note that this vintage item has specific characteristics from previous use, including the number 13 engraved on the bottom surface.
There is also some rust-like discoloration (sabi) and minor weathering from natural outdoor use.
Please look closely at all photos to confirm its condition before purchasing.
