What, another kiln opening!

Post by Watto »

It only seems like yesterday but it was two months ago since the last kiln opening.
I only have a few pots in this kiln load but I am excited about a couple of them.
First up is a pot that is inspired by the Victorian Native Bonsai Club, designed by me for a specific Casuarina that I had the opportunity to dig recently (recent in bonsai terms) that I plan to pot up in October or November this year. If everything is successful I will post a pic then.

I have a number of bottlebrush at the moment so these could be used for those.

I am a bit happy about this one.
Made after a chat with a friend of mine at the Australian Native trees as bonsai exhibition in Canberra this year and it is already out of the kiln and on the table.
Hope you enjoy and of course comments about any or all of the new pots is appreciated.
