Yoshiyuki Kawada is one of, if not the premiere artisan when it comes to hand-carving mame containers out of solid blocks of clay.  The resulting containers are surreal in their symmetry and exquisite in their detail.  Even when glazed, the glaze does not obscure even the finest of details on these small containers.

Make no mistake though - these are as practical as they are usable.  Glazed or unglazed, these containers are a must-have for your collection or as containers suitable for showing off the finest of mame bonsai.

Enjoy some insight into what it takes to create one of these containers!
