Volta Hammered Metal Planters, Set of 2 – Bronze

The Volta planters bring a warm metallic glow to indoor greenery. Sold as a set of two, they nest together in graduated sizes so you can group plants at different heights or place them apart across a room. The rounded, slightly tapered bodies sit low and steady, giving each pot a soft, rounded profile that works with trailing foliage as well as upright leaves.

Made from aluminium with a bronze finish, both planters carry a hand-hammered surface that catches the light across hundreds of small facets. The texture runs from the wide rim down to the base, where a subtle seam marks the join. The result is a finish with real depth, warm and reflective without turning glossy, so it settles comfortably alongside timber, ceramic and woven materials.

Use them as cover pots for your existing plastic nursery pots, or line them if you plan to pot directly. The larger planter suits a fern, olive or small palm, while the smaller one holds herbs, succulents or a leafy trailing plant. Position them in a living room corner, on a hallway console or by a kitchen window where the metal can pick up daylight.

Are these planters watertight?

They are made from aluminium but we recommend using a plastic liner or nursery pot inside, as the hammered seams are not guaranteed to be fully sealed for direct watering.

What size plants do they suit?

The larger planter holds a fern, olive or small palm, while the smaller one suits herbs, succulents or trailing plants.

How do I clean the bronze finish?

Wipe with a soft, dry cloth to keep the hammered surface bright. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the metal.

Do the two planters nest together?

They are graduated in size, so the smaller one can sit inside the larger for storage, though they are designed to be used as a pair.

Can I use them outdoors?

They are intended for indoor use. Prolonged exposure to rain and damp may affect the aluminium and its bronze finish over time.
