These Imperial planters have the appearance of antiquated relics, embellished with the texture of time, achieved by the fact every one is handmade. In a modern scheme they give depth to the space.
They can be used indoors and outdoors but do not have a drainage hole so one would need to be drilled for outdoor use.
Please note the planter is not guaranteed to be 100% watertight so we always recommend using a liner or saucer for added protection.
For no fuss or mess you can put the plant in the growing pot it arrives in straight inside a decorative one. This also allows allows excess water to be drained after watering.
For a good fit the opening (not diameter) and height of the new decorative pot need to be several centimetres greater than the current growing pot.
Remember to take into account tapering, as the internal height of a pot will be measured from the centre to the top but the sides will taper in on a rounded pot.
