These four images were borrowed from Juraj Szabó. Juraj lives, works and plays in Slovakia. The tree is a Shimpaku juniper (Juniperus chinensis sargentii). Juraj doesn't say where the pots came from, though a couple look like they might be either Tokoname or Yixing pots.
Most of our previous Which Pot? posts have been lifted from Boon Manakitivipart (including yesterday’s), so it was nice to discover one from someone (and somewhere) else. Nothing against Boon’s offerings, he puts on a world class bonsai show. It’s just a nice change of pace.
Some details: First, it’s best if you put your choices (and explanations) in the comments. Please don’t email me. I’m struggling to keep up with my 50,000 daily emails as is. Second, I encourage you to visit Juraj Szabó on facebook where we got the images show here. And third, this post is from our archives. It first appeared almost exactly one year ago.
