Know before you buy
The internal cone acts as a structural anchor for the suspension system. It allows the planter to hang securely from the center rather than relying on external clips or wires, creating a clean, minimalist aesthetic.
Yes, the planter features four small drainage holes at the base. We recommend using a saucer or placing the planter in a location where minor water runoff is manageable if you are watering heavily.
The cord is designed to complement the scale of the planter, but please note that the length is fixed. It is best suited for standard ceiling heights; if you need to adjust the drop, you may need to use an additional hook or extension.
The Form 39 is finished with a terra cotta glaze. While the glaze provides a protective, decorative layer, the ceramic material itself is high-quality stoneware that is durable and moisture-resistant.
With a diameter of 11.38 inches, this planter is ideal for medium-sized trailing plants like pothos, philodendrons, or string-of-pearls. The internal cone takes up some space, so it is best suited for plants that do not require a deep root system.
The ceramic body can be wiped clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. To maintain the integrity of the woven cord, avoid getting it saturated; if it becomes dusty, a gentle vacuum with a brush attachment or a light dusting is recommended.
