Know before you buy

The Diplomatic Eagle Cachepot has a diameter of 6.875 inches. Its novelty shape and tabletop design make it a compact, elegant accent for side tables, mantels, or desks.
No, the piece arrives fully assembled and ready for display. It is a solid, single-piece porcelain item.
No, this cachepot is specifically designed for indoor use. To preserve the finish and the integrity of the fine porcelain, it should be kept in a climate-controlled environment.
