Your pots are all lovely, but they also all seem to be a bit shallow, at least the ones you've posted in this thread. Do you make deeper pots? Ha ha, if I ever get my bills caught up, I'd love to have one! Love, love, love dragons and yours are just great!

Confidence is that feeling you have right before you do something really stupid.

The shallow pots I make are for Bonsai plantings.But to answer your question yes I can make deeper pots.I do alot of work by commission,just let me know how deep and big you are wanting one.

I would need you to tree mail me with your address,or give me the zipcode to there for mailing pricing.I know it cost me $38.00 us dollars for shipping.Should be able to ship to you maybe half that price.

I rolled out a slab,then formed them around a wet paper ball,Its one way I get rid of all the junk sales papers I get in the mail.

Good idea!

Sometimes I've formed entire clay balls around a ball of wet paper, then flattened the bottom and added a hole with a lip to the top. Or just a hole, works either way. The paper burns out of it during bisque firing and it makes a really nice vase. I also love abstract shapes, so imperfect circles don't matter.
