Sawara Cypress in Handmade Paul Olson Pot
Refined structure, classic pairing, and year-round appeal.
This Sawara Cypress (Chamaecyparis pisifera) came to us from a respected local collector who simply has too many trees. It features graceful movement, mature bark, and layered foliage pads that read cleanly in silhouette. The tree is finished in a handmade Paul Olson stoneware pot whose low oval form and stamped detail complement the canopy perfectly—display-ready from day one.
Why it stands out
-
Handmade Paul Olson pot: Artisan stoneware elevates the presentation and balances the tree’s line.
-
Layered architecture: Well-placed primaries with defined pads and natural negative space—tighten and it’s show-ready.
-
Mature character: Textured bark and gentle trunk movement convey age without heaviness.
-
Evergreen interest: Soft, feathery foliage that looks refined in every season.
