Know before you buy
This saucer is designed with a 16-inch diameter, but it is important to measure the base of your specific planter rather than the top rim. Ensure your planter's base is slightly smaller than 16 inches to allow for a proper fit and stability.
Yes, it is crafted from durable Italian pottery designed for outdoor environments. However, if you live in an area with freezing temperatures, we recommend bringing the saucer indoors during winter to prevent the ceramic from cracking due to freeze-thaw cycles.
The matte finish is low-maintenance and naturally resistant to the elements. You can simply wipe it down with a damp cloth or rinse it with a hose if you notice any mineral buildup or soil residue from your plants.
This saucer features a standard depth designed to catch typical runoff from watering. It is effective for everyday use, though if you have plants that require heavy watering, you may want to monitor the water level to ensure it does not overflow.
Yes, the primary purpose of this saucer is to protect surfaces like wooden decks, patios, and balconies from water damage and soil staining. It acts as a reliable barrier between your planter and the deck surface.
