Know before you buy
The terracotta base is porous, which is characteristic of the material. If you plan to use it for live plants that require regular watering, we recommend using a liner or a small saucer inside to prevent moisture from seeping into the clay.
The glass can be cleaned with a soft, lint-free cloth and a mild glass cleaner. Because it is hand-blown, handle it with care and avoid using abrasive scrubbers that could scratch the surface.
Yes, the glass cloche creates a contained environment that helps retain humidity. However, because the base is not airtight, it is best suited for plants that prefer moderate moisture rather than a strictly sealed ecosystem.
Yes. Each piece is hand-blown and crafted in Durango, Mexico, meaning you may notice slight variations in the glass clarity or the texture of the aged terracotta. These unique characteristics are part of the artisanal nature of the product.
The entire set measures approximately 8 inches in width and 13 inches in height. The base is sized to fit the cloche securely, providing a stable foundation for your display.
