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

Exactly what I thought... but I'm not very clued in on pots yet so could well be way off :)
Have a question? The AusBonsai Wiki most likely has the answer!

Looking for a Nursery or Club near your? Check out the AusBonsai Directory which lists them all

I agree with what the others have said. The first pot is Japanese by Juko Kouyo and the second pot is Australian by yourself.

I know nothing about pottery, but know of the page where you got the Japanese one from and the second, the photography is similar to your other photos of pots, but the crackled effect on the glaze is distinctly like alot of your other pots, which I do admire.

Cheers

David

(if I am wrong, this is a particularly epic fail lol)

HAHA Shame on you David.
I was trying to see if anyone did know his work, especially when you rarely see yellow pots.
Unfortunately I didn't have a yellow glaze pot without crackle on it.

totally forgot I had put it on my site
:worship: gold star for knowing the Japanese artist
by name . :worship:

Don't forget the Aussie native show on the 12th April everybody .

I wonder why this is. :lost: Many of my figs are moving from development stage into bonsai pot stage and I envision yellow to be a very nice colour for figs. Sort of symbolises sand and figs growing in sandy areas is very Sydney.

Love the pot. I might be in touch when those figs make that transition. :tu:
