About Pots & Planters
Your Space, Your Story
I want your home to feel like a place that’s truly yours. Adding greenery with pots and planters can change the vibe of any room. My collection is all about mixing Indian craftsmanship with a bit of personality – each piece is more than just a holder for plants, it’s got its own tale.
Materials & Styles
- Metal Planters: Think brass, copper, bronze, gold, or silver. You’ll find hammered, etched, ribbed textures. Some look vintage, some are super sleek. These handcrafted metal planters can go on floors or tabletops.
- Ceramic Planters: Made in small batches by studio potters. There’s everything from hand-painted tropical styles to funky shapes (like little teapots or cacti). Glazes come in earthy or marble finishes. Most have drainage holes and plates so your table stays safe.
- Jute & Fabric Baskets: Natural jute and block-printed fabrics, all hand-woven. These sustainable jute baskets work for plants or as storage if you need to clear some mess.
What Makes It Special
Every piece is made by hand in small workshops or home studios. No two are the same, so you’ll spot slight differences. That’s not a defect – it’s what makes your planter one-of-a-kind.
Quick Styling Tips
- Go bold with a big decorative indoor pot in the living room.
- Group planters with different heights and textures for a cool look.
- Mix metal finishes if you want a layered feel.
- A mini Indian ceramic planter on your desk works wonders for mood.
