Know before you buy
While the ceramic and terracotta construction is durable, it is best to bring this planter indoors during freezing temperatures to prevent the material from cracking due to moisture expansion.
No, this piece does not include a saucer. Because it features a functional drainage hole, we recommend placing it on a protective tray if you are using it on indoor surfaces like wood or carpet.
To preserve the hand-painted floral design, gently wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive scrubbers or harsh chemical cleaners that could damage the glazed finish.
This planter is ideal for small to medium-sized houseplants, such as a pothos, succulent arrangement, or a small flowering plant. Ensure your plant's root ball is slightly smaller than the 7-inch diameter to allow for proper soil aeration.
Because each piece is handcrafted and hand-painted in Bedford, Virginia, there may be slight variations in the brushwork and color application. These subtle differences are part of the artisanal charm and ensure that your planter is a unique piece.
