New pots by William Vlaanderen
These two pots are by William Vlaanderen from the Netherlands. I look forward to compose some great unions. Here one with my big sabina juniper, which is the most likely candidate.
Most probably cement. Most potters don't have kilns as large as required to make pots this size. And the ones who do, certainly don't forget to mention what kind of material their pots are made of. ;-)
Yes to the five-trunk Scots pine shown above, but I don’t like the Sabina juniper vert. as shown here. The tall pot is distracting from the intricate tree, the movement of pot and tree is contrary, and in nature I feel that a tree would follow the tall left “cliff face” if grown in such a “rock pocket” But you have many other candidates for this most expressive crescent, no doubt.

are these clay or cement?
I have no clue. Most potters will never revel their secrets.
