[IBC] Care of Display Stands
 
I always put 1/2" diameter adhesive backed felt pads on the feet of
display pots. Small packages of them are available in drug stores &
picture frame supply stores. As a potter, I put them on every piece I
send to galleries & buy them in rolls of 1000 from aftosa.com

What kind of care is taken with the beautiful display stands used with
bonsai trees and accent plants? They are an art form in their own
right and
I cringe to see pots with rough edges and trees that could possibly
leave
water damage. I'd love to put my trees on a lovely stand but don't
because
of the above concerns.

Thanks all for the response and thank you Jim for that URL. I could use
those felt pads as I've gotten all new furniture.

And speaking of stands, does anyone have any URL's for the larger stands? I
do have some for the mame size trees but I'd like to find larger stands.

Helen,

Contact Tom Scott of Chattanooga, TN . He makes stands of all
sizes including larger ones. One of his more famous stands was the one John
Naka commissioned for "Goshin", it has Mr. Naka's family crest in the center
of the stand. Truly a beautiful piece of work.
