Seafoam Textured Round Bonsai Pot with Wrapped Rim – John Fazzino
Handmade Bonsai Pot by John Fazzino
This round, sea-tinted pot evokes coastal stone polished by waves. Organic leaf-like textures wrap the walls beneath a vibrant turquoise glaze that breaks to soft teal along the rim. Four hand-applied “wraps” hug the lip, suggesting careful mending and quiet resilience. Inside, the surface is left unglazed for optimal root health, while the base carries Fazzino’s stamp beside two large drainage holes and six finer vent holes. Recessed pad feet lift the vessel just enough for airflow, keeping its low, grounded profile intact.

Meet the Artist: John Fazzino
John Fazzino has worked with clay since the late 1970s. He holds a BFA from RISD and an MFA from UMass Dartmouth, and has spent decades teaching and mentoring artists across New England.
Today, he’s channeling his creative energy into handmade bonsai pots—each one shaped with intention and designed to endure. Made with high-grog clay, his pots are strong, frost-resistant, and finished to a smooth, stone-like quality.
John lives and works in Mt. Pleasant, Providence, where his garden is both inspiration and testing ground. His bonsai pots aren’t just vessels—they’re collaborations between plant and pot, artist and earth.
