I was fortunate enough to be able to go along, it was a deceased estate and the family members were running the sale with assistance from the Syd City Club.

It was good to see some lovely pots going to good homes where they will be used and appreciated- not tossed in the bin which can sometimes happen in this situation. I purchased a few pots, rocks, books and a small stand. I don’t know if any pots are Japanese but I just bought ones I liked and knew I’d use, as I don’t have many at all.
