Description
This ceramic Highland cow planter is a charming little piece for anyone who loves a bit of rustic character in the home. Modelled with its head turned gently to the left, the cow has a softly detailed face and a shaggy coat rendered in the glaze, giving it plenty of personality without being fussy. The white ceramic finish keeps things fresh and neutral, so it sits happily alongside almost any scheme. Measuring 14cm high, 10cm wide and 19cm deep, it is a compact size that fits on a windowsill, shelf or table with room to spare.
The hollow back holds a small potted plant, and it works beautifully with succulents, herbs, trailing ivy or a sprig of faux foliage. It also makes a lovely spot for tea lights or dried stems if you prefer not to plant into it. Grouped with other seasonal pieces, it earns its place among festive christmas decorations, but its understated look means it stays out on display all year round rather than being packed away in January.
Ceramic is sturdy and easy to look after, though it does appreciate a careful hand. Wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth to keep the white finish looking clean, and avoid harsh abrasives that could dull the glaze. If you use it with a live plant, we suggest a plastic liner or a small inner pot to protect the base from moisture. Handled with a little care, this cheerful piece will keep its character for years.
