Know before you buy
Yes, this pot is crafted from durable ceramic designed for both indoor and outdoor environments. However, if you live in a region with harsh freezing winters, it is recommended to protect the pot from extreme frost to prevent potential cracking.
Yes, the pot includes a drainage hole to ensure proper water management and root health for your bonsai.
While traditional Yixing clay is prized for its porosity, the high gloss finish on this model creates a sealed surface. This makes it more similar to a glazed pot, meaning it will retain moisture longer than an unglazed, matte-finish Yixing pot.
The pot measures 12.25 inches in width and 9.6 inches in depth. With a height of 2.7 inches, it provides a shallow profile that is ideal for established bonsai trees requiring a classic oval aesthetic.
The kiln mark serves as a signature of the firing process and the artisan's work. It confirms the pot was fired in a traditional Yixing-style kiln, which is a hallmark of authentic craftsmanship.
