Know before you buy
Yes, the planter includes a coordinating ceramic saucer, which helps protect your surfaces from water runoff.
The handle is primarily a design feature inspired by Edith Heath’s iconic teapot. While it adds a unique aesthetic and a sense of mobility, we recommend supporting the base of the planter when moving it, especially when filled with soil and a plant.
The Form 12 is specifically designed for indoor use. We recommend keeping it in a climate-controlled environment to preserve the integrity of the leather-wrapped handle and the glazed ceramic finish.
Yes, the vessel features a small drainage hole at the bottom to support healthy root growth by allowing excess water to escape into the included saucer.
The planter portion itself measures 3 inches in height and 8.25 inches in diameter, providing a shallow, wide space ideal for arrangements like succulents or moss gardens.
To keep the leather in good condition, avoid getting it wet during watering. If it becomes dusty, you can gently wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
