A client of mine brought to my attention an Estate Sale with listing talking about the persons bonsai hobby. It turns out the woman was Connie Gardner a well know bonsai and print artist locally. I knew she stopped practice a few years back but did not hear about her passing. I did make it to the sale and was able to score a significant amount of pots for a GREAT PRICE. All of these pots were about $80. Some have chops some donā€™t. I also picked up a few of her prints. IMG_8370.jpegIMG_8371.jpeg
 
Amazing.

I went to an estate sale last weekend because I saw one bonsai pot in the posted pictures.

None when I got there - they had an "appointment only" dealer day the day before and whatever was there was taken then šŸ™
 
Flip em over man. Gotta see makers' marks. Could be some good ones in there the big rectangle and the mokko shaped one in particular

I had been, but didnā€™t have time to post pics of each chop.

I thought the same but that moko is chopless. 2 others have chops but are about completely worn away. The rest are chopless.
