Eichholtz Zanzibar Planter

Yes, the Zanzibar is designed for both indoor and outdoor use. Its durable stone and marble construction is built to withstand the elements, though we recommend covering or storing it during extreme winter conditions to preserve the finish.

At 154 lbs, this piece is exceptionally substantial and stable. It is unlikely to tip over under normal outdoor conditions, making it a reliable choice for exposed patios or entryways.

This piece is primarily designed as a decorative sculptural vessel. If you intend to plant directly into it, you may need to drill drainage holes or use an internal liner to manage water runoff.

To keep the cream finish looking its best, simply wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or pressure washers, as these can damage the textured stone material.

The finish is a textured cream, which offers a softer, warmer aesthetic than a stark, bright white. This neutral tone is designed to complement natural surroundings and contemporary architectural palettes.

Like all natural stone, marble is porous and can absorb moisture or oils over time, which may lead to patina or staining. We recommend using a high-quality plastic liner inside the planter to protect the interior stone from direct contact with damp soil.
