G'day Brian,

Is this like what you are after?

I got mine from Ray Nesci but it was the only one he had. I think David Rojo might stock them.

Regards,
Steven

I think I have seen them at Sage horticultural but they are not on the website, I suspect they stock only one or two, worth a phone call

They are not cheap, but beautiful to use. I found the rose too large and much to my better half I have fitted a smaller plastic rose. Kingston W had a few.

No worries. I was very very lucky to pick up a stainless one a few years back for 30 bucks from a junk shop. Felt like I'd won tattslotto!

i was gifted a haws watering can at the beginning of my bonsai journey. similar to the all-brass version of this 1litre one but with a straight spout.
