Description
These are two round plant pots in iron, finished in brown and worked all the way round with close vertical ribs. They come in two sizes made to sit side by side: the smaller pot is 17cm across and 15.5cm tall, and the larger is 21.5cm across and 19cm tall. Each narrows slightly towards the base and finishes in a rolled lip at the rim, so the outline stays soft while the ribbing gives the surface its rhythm. The brown is not flat; it shifts a little from rib to rib, which gives the metal a gently aged look.
At these sizes they suit the houseplants most of us keep: a trailing plant or a small fern in the smaller pot, something leafier in the larger one. Grouped together on the floor beside a chair, they make an easy, low pairing for the corner of a living room or a hallway. Used apart, the smaller pot fits a wide windowsill or a bookshelf while the larger sits well on a sideboard or a side table. Ribbed iron is a quiet partner for green leaves, and the brown works with natural wood, rattan, linen and warm whites, in a bedroom as readily as a study.
Both pots are made from 100% iron, with the ribs running unbroken from the rim to the base. As a material, iron rusts where water stands against it, so we would keep each base dry: leave the plant in its plastic nursery pot and set that within the iron pot, then stand a saucer underneath to catch any run-off when watering. The styling props shown are not included, so the pots arrive empty and ready for your own plants. For a simple arrangement, place the larger pot slightly behind the smaller one so both rims show, and let a trailing plant spill over the front edge.

Frequently Asked
What are these plant pots made of?
Both pots are made from 100% iron, with close vertical ribs running all the way round the outside from rim to base.
What sizes are the two pots?
The smaller pot is 17cm across and 15.5cm tall, and the larger pot is 21.5cm across and 19cm tall, so they pair well.
Do the plants come with them?
No. You receive the two iron pots only; the styling props shown are not included, so the pots arrive empty and ready for your own plants.
What colour are the pots?
They are brown, and the finish shifts a little from rib to rib, which gives the iron a softly aged look rather than a flat one.
How do I keep the iron pots in good condition?
Iron rusts where water stands against it, so we suggest keeping each plant in its nursery pot and standing a saucer beneath to keep the base dry.
How heavy are they?
The weight given for this product is 1.17KG, so the pots are easy to lift and move whenever you rearrange your plants.
