Know before you buy
No, this planter does not feature drainage holes. If you are planting directly into the vessel, we recommend using a layer of gravel at the bottom or keeping your plant in a plastic nursery liner to prevent water from sitting at the roots.
While the planter is rated for indoor and outdoor use, the porcelain material is delicate. We recommend bringing it inside during freezing temperatures to prevent the porcelain from cracking due to extreme weather shifts.
The Hannah Scallop Planter measures 5.5 inches in height, 14 inches in width, and 9 inches in depth. Its oval shape makes it well-suited for a console table, dining centerpiece, or a windowsill.
Wipe the porcelain with a soft, damp cloth to maintain the finish. For the solid brass feet, use a gentle brass cleaner if you wish to maintain their shine, or allow them to develop a natural patina over time.
The planter is crafted from porcelain and features solid brass feet, providing a stable base for small to medium-sized arrangements. However, because of its 14-inch width, it is best suited for smaller plants, fresh fruit, or floral displays rather than heavy, large-scale shrubs.
