Workaday Handmade Milking Planter

Because the planter lacks a drainage hole, it is best used as a decorative cachepot. You can keep your plant in its original plastic nursery pot and place it inside, or use a liner to prevent water from sitting at the bottom and causing root rot.

This planter is ideal for moisture-loving plants if planted directly, or any indoor houseplant if used with a liner. Given its 9-inch height and 6-inch diameter, it works well for medium-sized foliage plants like snake plants, pothos, or philodendrons.

The matte exterior can be wiped clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh abrasive scrubbers, as they may mark or scuff the matte surface of the stoneware.

As a hand-thrown artisanal piece, each planter may have subtle variations in the black striped pattern and overall shape. These slight irregularities are part of the charm and authenticity of handmade stoneware.

This planter is specifically designed for indoor use. Stoneware can be susceptible to cracking in freezing temperatures, and the lack of drainage makes it unsuitable for outdoor environments where it might collect rainwater.
