6" Handmade Rectangular Bonsai Pot with "Love" Symbol – John Fazzino No. JF-037

Handmade Rectangular Bonsai Pot with "Love" Symbol – John Fazzino

This handmade rectangular bonsai pot by John Fazzino is more than just a container—it’s a vessel of meaning. Embossed into the rugged, earthy clay is a sacred Japanese symbol for “Love.” According to the artist, this symbol represents the harmony between nature and spirit—an invitation to cultivate patience, beauty, and connection through bonsai.

With a rough-textured exterior and an unglazed interior, the piece has a primal, natural feel. The golden-brown tone enhances its warmth, and the block-style feet elevate it with intention. The base features Fazzino’s hand-carved abstract markings—signatures of his process and personal touch.

This pot tells a story. It’s a reminder of the peace and presence bonsai brings into our lives.
