10" John Fazzino Handmade Bonsai Pot – Kidney Shape with Bark Texture No. JF-022

Handmade Bonsai Pot by John Fazzino

This handcrafted pot by John Fazzino features a rugged bark-like texture and an organic kidney shape that flows effortlessly across the bench. Designed to evoke the feel of natural stone, it has an earthy, unglazed finish with soft green undertones that give the piece warmth and age.
