Pot suggestions for this Juniper? I

Hey
First, I'm just gonna intro myself just in case: Australian, Melbourne, 18 y.o, 4.5 years into Bonsai and is addict woo...

This is a Juniper I currently have in possession and this year I would like to change the pot to a prettier and more appropriate one (given the appropriate timing)
Dimensions: 16cm W (at the widest) and 17cm H from soil to apex.

So yea.. pot suggestions? ... do give critique to the tree as well if you spot anything, im sure there are stuff to poke at hah hah...
BUT
personally I like the tree HEAPS the way it is and I think that is all that matters really!

Nice little tree, but I would reduce those jins a bit - way too distracting and not natural.

I'd look for a curved, oval pot with small feet. Someting narrower than the overall tree width and perhaps a little deeper than normal to balance the shape of the foliage.

Thanks everyone, I'll fix up the jins (do a couple of quick little virts or cover with a cloth to evaluate). And same with pinching, I realised that the picture was before I tidied it up hah hah.
Thankee again
