IAN BAILLIE bonsai pots - In-Store today! (from 18.00 gmt)

29/11/2025

Timeless glazes and forms.

My favourite part of this job is when new batches of pots arrive from one of the true greats of European bonsai ceramics.

An inspirational artist and a true gentleman, Ian Baillie of Scotland was one of the pioneers in the field of European bonsai ceramics, having been providing Europe with exquisite bonsai pots for decades. Ian was also instrumental in creating the Scottish Bonsai Association in 1978, which thrives to this day.

Ian makes a low quantity of high quality ceramics - producing limited batches 2 or 3 times a year. The EBPC is very proud to be the main supplier of these magnificent bonsai ceramics, and we thank Ian for his ongoing trust and support.

On Saturday 29th Nov., a batch of 14 pots will be available in-store, which will be the 22nd EBPC stamped batch we have sold for Ian over the past 8 years.

You can admire or buy the pots (after 18.00 gmt) In-Store here!

I feel this pot encompasses many of the characteristics that make Ian's pots so popular and timeless. The impressive aged-looking multi-layer glaze is quite typical of Ian's work, as are the scroll feet and thin banding, both of which are quite traditional features that add further refinement to these distinguished containers.

Ian's work is known for the recognisable style we have got to know over decades. His techniques have been honed and his pallet of forms and glazes enriched, whilst always remaining true to his distinct style.

A limited edition of 14 pots will be available from 18.00 g.m.t. / 19.00 c.e.t. on Saturday 29th November.
Please note: We regrettably do not currently ship to the United States of America

Thank you for supporting the EBPC and helping us bring you great European bonsai ceramics and furniture.

The first batch of 25 pieces are In-Store NOW.

The EBPC is honoured to have been asked by Bryan Albright to help distribute his entire personal collection of ceramics.

A UK artist and a pioneer of European bonsai pottery, Bryan Albright dedicated his life to ceramics, especially bonsai ceramics, which all began over 4 decades ago.
Reflecting his passion for ceramics, for most of his life Bryan also collected fascinating and beautiful ceramics from around the world. As Bryan is sadly not well, he has decided to part from his ceramics collection - and allow others to benefit from his lifelong passion.

With over 200 pieces, including those from the Ming, Tang and Song dynasty of China, antique and vintage Japanese, to Bryan's own work and that of other European potters, the pieces include studio pottery, bonsai ceramics, and a wealth of other collectable ceramics.

You can see the pieces available in-store here:

Thank you for supporting great European Bonsai ceramics and display!
