Good Evening All,

Enjoy my miniature Oncidium Orchid, Onc. Twinkle in one of my favorite pots a Tokoname Yaki by Motozo (I believe he may have died this year). It was an anniversary present form my wife last year. If anyone has any info on the potter I'd appreciate knowing more about him.

Is that a frog or something hanging off the right side of the pot?

It's really cool.  Nice accent plant too, thanks for sharing.

Hello again Jrob.  Mr Keiichi has the following to say in regards to this post about Motozo:
"I didn't know that many people are talking
about me and my listing pots. I was very glad to see this.  Thank you for
information.
But someone misunderstand about Motozo. He isn't dead yet. Still alive.
Just the designer of his pot (Mr. Yamamoto) is dead. Motozo is not a special
bonsai pot potter. He is a specialist of guinomi, yunom, tea pots, Chawan
for tea ceremony.  Mr. Yamamoto ordered Mr. Motozo to make bonsai pots."

A little insight into why thy the Motozo pots are prized and rare, perhaps.

Gnome,

Thanks for the info. I keep detailed records so I am always grateful when someone can provide such useful information.

Regards,

JRob
