Know before you buy
Yes, the Form 48 is a two-piece set that includes a coordinating saucer designed to sit beneath the planter.
Yes, the planter features a built-in drainage hole, making it safe for direct planting. We recommend using a layer of gravel or a mesh screen at the bottom to prevent soil from clogging the hole.
The Form 48 is specifically designed for indoor use. While it is made of durable ceramic, it is best kept in a climate-controlled environment to preserve the integrity of the artisanal glaze.
The planter itself stands 4 inches tall, while the total height of the piece, including the saucer, is 5.75 inches.
Because each piece is handcrafted by Tung Chiang in the Heath Clay Studio, there will be subtle variations in the gradient finish and speckling. This makes every Form 48 a unique, one-of-a-kind object.
