These plant pots are made by Kasama ceramicist Shungo Nemoto. The intricate hand crafted designs are unique to each one, and decorated with the potter’s signature metallic glaze shades.
The creation of the pots stem from Nemoto’s personal passion for houseplants. They have holes on the base, and on the sides, according to the optimum positioning he developed through experimentation - and the very many such pots that can be found in his studio.
The pattern work has its inspiration in Jomon era ceramics of Japanese pre-history.
As each is handmade, there are small differences between the pots.
When purchased in store, they can be supplied with a plant.
