10" ohn Fazzino Handmade Bonsai Pot – Round with Craggy Texture & Symbol Underside No. JF-035

Handmade Bonsai Pot by John Fazzino

This deeply textured round bonsai pot by John Fazzino has a rugged, stone-like exterior with green glaze peeking through the dark surface. The finish feels raw and elemental—an ideal contrast for soft foliage or structured forms. The slightly irregular rim and rich unglazed interior showcase the organic hand-built nature of the piece.

The base features a carved Japanese character for "Love," symbolizing harmony, patience, and connection. Each foot is thick and blocky for strength and stability—true to Fazzino’s expressive, intentional style.
