Naginowa Muddy Rock with 4 legs BANKO Ware Japanese Bonsai Pot 4.9 in.

Handcrafted Banko-yaki Bonsai Pot – Rugged Rock-inspired Design

True to its name, this bonsai pot features a rough, rocky texture that evokes the feeling of natural stone. The uneven surface creates an earthy, grounded aesthetic that will beautifully complement your bonsai’s character.

Despite the pot’s rugged exterior, the small feet at the base add a surprising touch of cuteness, softening the overall look. This unique contrast between the raw, rocky texture and the delicate feet creates an intriguing visual dynamic that will enhance any plant you choose to place inside. Imagine a fruit-bearing plant, where the contrast between the pot’s rugged texture and the plant’s gentle, round fruits creates a fascinating harmony.

Each pot is carefully handcrafted, so slight variations in appearance and texture may occur, making every piece uniquely yours. Please note that these variations are a natural part of the process.

This pot is made from Banko-yaki, a distinguished ceramic style from Yokkaichi City in Mie Prefecture, known for its durability and distinctive designs. Originating in the mid-Edo period, Banko-yaki is named with the wish that it would endure the test of time—Ban meaning "all" or "endless," and Ko representing the passing of years. Banko-yaki is not only renowned for its aesthetic appeal but also its strength, making it ideal for use with bonsai pots, teapots, and clay cooking pots.

Add a touch of rugged beauty to your bonsai collection with this Banko-yaki bonsai pot, where nature’s rawness meets delicate charm. A perfect choice for those who appreciate unique, handcrafted designs with character.
