Naginowa Ancient Jomon BANKO Ware Japanese Bonsai Pot 3.5 in.

This flowerpot has a pattern reminiscent of old Japanese earthenware.

Jomon refers to the pattern of a rope, and there is a period in Japan called the “Jomon period” in B.C., named after the Jomon earthenware that was excavated.

This pot is characterized by its tasteful pattern that mimics the earthenware pattern, and because it has a pattern, it will surely look good even if you plant simple plants without fruits.

Since each pot is individually handmade, there may be differences in appearance and feel from product to product. Please understand this beforehand.

This is Banko-yaki. Banko-yaki is a type of pottery produced mainly in Yokkaichi City, Mie Prefecture. It originated in the middle of the Edo period (1603-1868) and was named after the wish that the work would remain forever. "Ban" means "everything." "Ko" means "months and days gone by." In addition to bonsai pots, it is also resistant to fire, such as kyusu (teapots) and earthenware pots.
