I think it is good for inside a Shohin box.
But not stand alone, as in the "accent" tree outside of the box. It will gather too much attention then.
Inside a box, where the eye is being drawn to things left right up and/or down, you won't get stuck on it too much.
The look of already being on a stand that the "neutral" feet give it, is what is going to gather all that attention.
Next to a blue and white pot in a box, it can be on a stand, because the blue and white will draw your attention away from it. Off a stand, something less glaring than a blue and white can successfully remove the eye.
It can be the "stand out" in a box on a stand for that reason. But truthfully, that doesn't work for me.
And for all these complex reasons, I think there is a pot that might not be "better", but it can be more acceptable In Different scenarios.
This pot is nice, but limiting.
I hate the feet.
