LoooP Bonsai Pots


I have been making pots by hand for several years now for friends and to match specific trees in my own collection of bonsai. As a previous co-president of the Auckland club, and current vice-pres, I enjoy bonsai as much as pottery.  So if you like the hand-sculpted, slightly rustic style then these pots might suit your tree. I am thrilled to have won the inaugural Kiwi Bonsai Ceramics competition in 2021, for mid-sized pots, with the “Rainbow Pot”, pictured.

Auckland Bonsai Society Convention Pots.
I volunteered to make individual accent pots for each of the NZBA convention goodie bags. After the unfortunate cancellation of the show there are now many pots, all vastly different, available for sale. These are around 50mm to 80mm in size. They are all marked, as space allowed, with “NZBA, Convention ‘21, ABS, MC”. See gallery below. Contact Moira on 027 2791559 for pricing and availability. NZ$, Postage as required.

Custom Made Pots
If you would like a custom made pot of a particular shape, size or colour, then I am happy to make something to your specifications. Lead times depend on the availability of the kiln and may be several weeks. Phone : 027 279 1559

Please email me to discuss your requirements. Be aware that glaze colours can vary (who knew brown glaze mixed with brown glaze would result in turquoise and green!)  This is part of the charm of hand crafted, unique pieces, but rest assured if you don't like the result, you won’t be required to purchase it.
