10" Verdigris Teal Oval Bonsai Pot with Flared Rim – John Fazzino No. JF-060

Verdigris Teal Oval Bonsai Pot with Flared Rim – John Fazzino

Handmade Bonsai Pot by John Fazzino

Shifting between ocean green and antiqued bronze, this oval pot carries the serenity of aged copper. Delicate, swirling motifs are impressed into the clay, then washed in a verdigris-teal glaze that settles softly in every recess. A broad, outward-flaring rim refines the silhouette, while warm tan breaks along the edges hint at weathered metal revealed by time. Four low pad feet lift the vessel just enough for airflow, and the unglazed interior floor features three generous drainage holes plus multiple anchor holes for secure wiring.
