Want to comission a pot

Post by wrcmad »

Just calling out to the local potters.
I'd like to commission an Aussie stoneware glazed pot of 60cm width in a rounded rectangle or oval shape (not round or wheel spun). I would also like a quality glaze with character in either a light blue or cream. Are there any Australian potters who can do this?

I thought I'd give a shout-out to see what we can produce locally before resorting to ordering from Japan.

Fingers crossed. :fc:

I'd consider Steve / bonsai potter / happy potter.

He can be found in this thread and if you do a bit of stalking on his past posts you will no doubt find his website.

I commissioned a small number of pots from him and they are of the utmost quality IMO.

One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful
