Our handcrafted ceramic pots are all designed and created by us at Zero Bonsai. Each pot having slightly different detail, size, features and colour variations. Created from wet clay, using techniques inspired by pot makers in Japan, carved out of wet clay or slab built. All are high fired and glazed in a variety of colours. Perfect for that special tree or excellent as a gift
This unique ceramic pot is made using local clay sourced directly from the Derwent Valley. This material is the historic Mercia Mudstone, or "Keuper Marl," a Triassic deposit formed over 200 million years ago. The iconic red-brown hue is derived from oxidised iron minerals. While this resilient mudstone famously earned Derby its reputation as a "brick city," we transform this local raw material into refined, individual works of art, ensuring that every pot possesses its own distinct character, size, and tonal variation.
