Found this pot at a thrift shop today. Nothing special, seems to be mass produced. Made in Japan.

Just had a few questions and I'm not the best versed on pottery....yet ;) working on it!

Anyone know around what year/decade this was made?

Maybe some info on what part of Japan it's from?


Thanks in advance for the help!! Cheers!!

I can't tell you what year it was made other than it's definitely contemporary. You're right that it's a mass produced pot that's a dime a dozen. It's probably not vitrified, so I'm not sure it would survive a winter outside. I'm also not sure what part of Japan it's made in.

Thank you, that was one of my concerns...... the integrity if I used it. Really appreciate it!!

Ah but it will do well on trees that need very good drainage.
We use those types for Serissa s and J.B.pines.
Good purchase.
Good shape.
Good Day
