Where to buy stands in Victoria?

Post by Shane »

So, is there anywhere in Victoria you'd recommend for buying mid-size to large bonsai stands? I find myself still looking less than a fortnight out from a show. Anywhere selling trunk slice stands?

Hey mate,

You may want to pay a visit to Orient Bonsai on Mahoney's road. They stock stands in multiple sizes and have quite a few stains/woods I believe. All hand carved and they're quite beautiful.

Regards,
Mo
There are many ways to do things, but only one "best" way.

Anywhere else? Orient bonsai is my local, so I've seen their stock.

There is a Japanese furniture store near the south Melbourne market called made in Japan. http://www.mij.com.au/ the website is only good for the street address.

There may have actual bonsai stands there, or perhaps a side table that would work equally as well! worth a look if you dont live too far away.. Oh the website says they have a show room in Mornington also if thats closer.
