Reactive Glaze Ceramic Planter – Orange

This is a generously sized ceramic planter finished in a glossy drip reactive glaze that runs from deep amber and brown at the rim down over a warm orange terracotta body. The textured surface is worked with ridges and dimples that catch the light, while the reactive glaze pools and drips to give each piece its own individual character. It measures 28cm wide, 27cm deep and 24.3cm tall, and weighs 2.41kg, giving it enough presence to hold a substantial plant or stand alone as a decorative object. The interior is fully water safe, so it works for real planting as well as display.

The warm tones and hand-finished look suit relaxed, layered interiors, from Mediterranean-inspired schemes to boho and mid-century rooms. Use it to house a leafy houseplant or trailing greenery in a living room, hallway or on a sunny windowsill, or leave it empty on a shelf or sideboard as a sculptural focal point. The colour pairing sits well against neutral walls, natural wood and rattan, and it groups nicely with other reactive-glaze pieces for a collected, harmonious display. Its wide rim and rounded body make it a good match for medium to larger plants.

Made from ceramic with a glossy reactive glaze, the finish means no two planters are exactly alike in their brown and orange patterning. The glaze gives a smooth, wipeable surface over the moulded texture. To care for it, wipe clean with a soft damp cloth and avoid abrasive scourers or harsh chemicals that could dull the finish. Empty out standing water and check any drainage arrangement if using with live plants. Handle with care as ceramic can chip or crack if knocked or dropped, and lift rather than drag it across surfaces.

What is this planter made from?

It is made from ceramic with a glossy drip reactive glaze in brown and orange tones. The reactive glaze means the exact pattern varies slightly from piece to piece.

Is it water safe for real plants?

Yes, the interior is fully water safe, so you can plant directly into it or use it to hold a plastic nursery pot. Empty any standing water to protect roots and the finish.

What size is it and what plants suit it?

It measures 28cm wide, 27cm deep and 24.3cm tall. The wide rim and rounded body suit medium to larger houseplants, leafy foliage or trailing greenery.

How do I clean it?

Wipe with a soft damp cloth and dry off. Avoid abrasive scourers and harsh chemicals so you do not dull the glossy glaze.

Will the colour and pattern match the photo exactly?

The reactive glaze runs and pools during firing, so the brown and orange drips are unique to each planter. Yours will be similar in style but not identical.

Can I group it with other pieces?

Yes, it works well alongside coordinating reactive-glaze planters and candle holders for a layered, collected display.
