I recently acquired a collection of vintage Japanese pots. A delight was finding a few Ellis pots amongst them. Here's the most notable.

There were a few slip cast pots as well but not of this rarity.
The pot is in perfect condition without a single chip.
Cheers

Hey Soda, how did you manage to score these beauties? Planned or just lucky?

Cheers, Ryan

That quaint little auction house eBay. Lady just round the corner had had a bunch of small pots she collected in the 70's. Not much else jumped out as significant. Few more years watching and waiting and hopefully a hand made may pop up.

Not Bonsai but someone may like this...

I'd go back and take another look soda. The seventies were the time of Chinese "Cultural Revolution" and Japanese pots. If you find some CR pots, I'd be happy to swap some old ellis pots for them.

Hi All,

After visiting the AABC Convention yesterday, Jarrod and I were wandering around my backyard looking at the trees when we came across this pot I had lying around.
I seen it has "Ellis" and "190" on the bottom and Jarrod directed me to this thread...
