Description
This is a small stoneware plant pot in blue, covered all over in raised, rounded cells of varying sizes, packed together like pebbles on a beach. The glaze runs deeper blue in the channels between them and paler blue on their raised tops, so the surface reads as many shades of one colour rather than a flat coat. It is 12cm across and 10cm tall, a rounded, squat shape a little wider than it is tall, and it weighs 0.436KG. That size makes it a pot for a single small houseplant on a shelf or sill, rather than a floor planter.
Put it where the texture can be seen up close: a windowsill, a bookshelf, a desk or a bedside table. It suits succulents, small leafy plants and trailing plants, whose stems can spill over the rim and soften the bumpy sides. Being compact, it fits narrow sills and small flats well, and a few grouped along a shelf make a lively run of blue. It also makes a thoughtful gift for anyone who keeps houseplants, or for someone setting up a new home.
It is made from 100% stoneware, a clay fired hard and dense, so the pot feels solid in the hand. The glaze covers the outside and runs over the rim into the top of the inside, while the foot is left bare to show the clay beneath. For styling, let the texture lead: set it against plain wood, linen or a calm wall, and choose a plant with fine or trailing leaves, which contrast with the rounded cells rather than competing with them.
