Well i have tried craft fairs in the past with not much success, i usually get lots of interest and questions but no sales :(.Yes my work probably is a bit to specialised for general fairs. Although my pots could be used as ordinary plant pots, most people think that they are a bit expensive compared to to the general run of the mill plant pots which are usually moulded. Mine are individually hand made, which of course accounts for the higher price and this is ok when someone is looking for a unique pot to compliment their bonsai.

The pots i have shown here on my profile are actually not bonsai pots, they are Chawan or tea bowls used for Japanese tea ceremony, but again this is a very specialised market.

My pleasure :)

Cheers

Vic
