If you
have never heard of Tokoname, they are the largest manufacturer of
bonsai pottery in Japan. They do have a website but making a
purchase is a little confusing. There are dozens of styles, shapes
and colors to choose from. Look out for the word “choukaku” which
means “rectangle” - many of the pots are named under this heading.
Bonsaimonk.com is
one source you may want to consider. The website is maintained by
the “Monastery Greenhouse” and the monks claim to have the largest
selection of bonsai pots in the U.S plus Tokoname. The greenhouse and monastery are located in Conyers,
Georgia.
Whether
you have miniature bonsai plant or a regular sized one, sizes of the
pots can vary from 2.4 inches to 32.8 inches to suit. Have a look
at the gallery section as it might help you identify some unusual or
odd-shaped pottery you have lying around the house
If you
are looking for discounted Tokoname pots, then nip over to The Stone
Lantern who offer up to 15% off recommended retail prices. For those
of you who like a pot to be highly decorative and ornate then try
New England Bonsai. Other sites to try out are
Bonsai Boy who are
located in New York, plus Brussel’s Bonsai Nursery.
