Description
Our Guxim plant pot has a face. It is made entirely of stoneware in brown, with a long tapering nose standing proud on the front, blocky ears at either side and a pair of round beads under each ear that hang like earrings. The whole head sits on a ribbed foot of stacked rings, and the surface is finely speckled, which keeps the brown lively rather than flat. It measures 20.5cm long, 20.5cm wide and 22.5cm tall, a medium size that suits a single houseplant, and at 1.47KG it feels solid in the hand.
A pot with this much character works best where its face is in full view. A windowsill is the natural home for it, with a green plant growing out of the top like a head of hair, and it sits just as happily on a shelf among books, vases and candlesticks, or on a side table beside a reading chair in the living room. Choose a plant with upright or gently spreading leaves, such as a small palm, a succulent or a trailing string of pearls, and the face does the rest. It suits anyone who likes their houseplants with a bit of personality, and it makes a cheerful housewarming gift for a friend with a new flat and a bare sill.
The pot is 100% stoneware from rim to foot, nose, ears and beads included. Stoneware is fired at high temperatures, which makes it dense and hard-wearing, and the speckled surface gives the brown a natural, earthy look that sits well beside green leaves. The ribbed foot lifts the face a little, so the features read clearly even towards the back of a deep shelf. For a playful display, set it beside plain, smooth vases and let it be the one with an expression.
