Description
This small ceramic planter takes the shape of a watering can, with a curved handle on one side and a spout on the other that ends in a pierced rose. The body is a soft cream, scattered all over with a print of red strawberries on slender green stems with little leaves, and the handle and spout are glazed in a gentle sage green that picks up the foliage. It stands 11.5cm high, 21cm wide and 21cm deep, so it is compact enough to fit where a larger pot would crowd the space.
We think it looks at home on a sunny windowsill, a kitchen shelf or a dresser, wherever a little greenery and a nod to the garden would lift the room. The open top suits a small houseplant or a trailing plant, and it is just as happy holding a bundle of dried flowers or a few faux stems. The strawberry print brings a fresh, summery feel to a cottage-style kitchen or a sunroom, and it sits comfortably beside other cream and green pieces on a shelf.
Made from ceramic with a smooth, glossy glaze, it is simple to look after: wipe it with a damp cloth and dry it with a soft one. For living plants, we suggest leaving the plant in its plastic nursery pot and setting it inside, so you can lift it out to water and let it drain before putting it back. As with any ceramic, handle it with a little care and set it down on a level surface. It makes an easy gift, and we like it best with a small plant already settled inside and a ribbon tied around the handle.
