Thanks a bunch-
This was a gift from John Naka in the mid 90's. I've never had something I wanted to put into it until now.

Cool X2 , post up the pics of that tree in the pot once potted.

Quite interesting. It's very unusual to see a glazed Yamaaki with this color, though this style is common for Glazed Yamaaki pots. Quite a gift, and a super cool history.
