Made by the legendary, late Sharon Muth in 1978, and never yet used. Nine inches OD, an inch and three-quarters deep. Some day I’ll have a tree that deserves it.
One of my favorite pots

My favorite Chingwen Cheng pot. Right now it has an orchid in it, but I think I'll put a semi-cascading Satsuki azalea in it. I picked it up a couple years ago. It also looked good in autumn with a Virginia Creeper in brilliant color.

Awesome pot. Where did you get this one?One of my new Emei pots. Its 2020, so I'm buying pots again. I stopped end of 2019. I know @0soyoung keeps pestering me about Asahi super dry. I only keep these shot sized ones for Shohin, and Kirin was at my disposal.

@Carkybones I ordered online through Yukimono store. They have a constant supply of certain Emei pots and then they have other pots that seem to be more limited. I think there's two more pots of different shapes with similar glaze.

Damn! I hawk watched those auctions to get one inside my liking, I think I saw one but didn't have funds.
That is spectacular!
Most of them are a bit too chunky for my tastes. Love the blue and white if it's right.

My friend Ron Heinen made it. He’s a retired art & ceramics teacher, award-winning artist, and we have been torturing trees together for 25 years. Over the last year he has been making pots, all slab-built. A few have shown up on FB auctions. Really nice pots.
These three are his:

That last one is very nice.

Love the crackling in the glaze. How big is the pot?
19,5x15x5 cm, a bigger shohin size pot.

Very nice glaze. The glaze provides many varied color combinations to pick up and use with a tree. The colors are quietly natural and in good harmony with nature. Great find by you!
Anyone who knows glazes know what kind of glaze that is/how they got so much crystalization to show? It's really cool looking.

My favorite pot....right now. Silky smooth glaze. Nicely weighted. Fabulously cool to the touch. Shuhou rectangle, Mr. Hidemi Kataoka. Yoshimura Kiln.

My favorite pot, just "resurfaced", I had not looked at it in years. I had wrapped it well and put it away. I bought it in 1989, maybe, spent $175 on it, back then that was a fortune to me. I liked the feel of it. It is unglazed but burnished to a satin smooth finish that is just a delight to touch. I never got around to looking up the signature. Does anyone recognize the maker?
I originally was going to put an azalea in it, later realized azaleas really are easier to grow in deeper pots, so this pot has never had a tree in it. Yet. Maybe someday.

That looks like Bigei's signature.

A new (relatively) Zeshin for me... this one will actually be very likely to be planted as a kusamono.
