Know before you buy
No, this pot does not feature a drainage hole. We recommend using a plastic nursery liner inside the pot if you are planting directly, or using it as a decorative cachepot for a plant already in a plastic grower's pot.
Yes, the exterior is crafted from unglazed stoneware, which gives it a matte, natural texture. Because it is unglazed, it may be susceptible to water marks or soil stains if handled frequently, so we suggest placing it on a protective surface.
The Shell Pot is designed specifically for indoor use. Its stoneware material and unglazed finish are best suited for climate-controlled environments to maintain the integrity of the piece.
For light dust, a soft, dry cloth or a gentle brush is best. If you encounter a smudge on the unglazed surface, you can try a slightly damp cloth, but avoid harsh detergents or abrasive scrubbers that could alter the texture.
The pot weighs 4.2 lbs, providing a sturdy base for medium-sized houseplants. Given its sculptural, wide-base design, it is well-balanced for tabletop display.
