9" Caramel “Driftwood” Textured Round Bonsai Pot – John Fazzino No. JF-058

Caramel “Driftwood” Textured Round Bonsai Pot – John Fazzino

Handmade Bonsai Pot by John Fazzino

This shallow, round pot radiates the warmth of sun-bleached driftwood. Organic, branch-like textures ripple across the walls beneath a caramel glaze that pools into creamy striations and darker amber recesses. The rim undulates like weathered bark, giving the vessel a quietly time-worn authenticity. Inside, the surface remains unglazed for vigorous root growth, while the base hosts two generous drainage holes and multiple anchor holes for secure wiring. Two broad rail feet lift the pot just enough for healthy airflow.
