This terracotta planter with saucer was made of wheel-thrown, locally dug clay that when fired to the right temperature comes out a nice terracotta color and is porous. This allows air and water to flow through the pot which prevents root rot and soil disease.
It is fired high enough to be much stronger and more durable than mass produced terracotta pots (which are usually not real terracotta). It has a small hole for drainage and a saucer that has been treated with a sealant to keep it from leaking. It also comes with a small shard to keep the soil from falling out or the hole becoming clogged. Okay indoors or outdoors.
Lizella Clay is known to potters all over the US and Canada as the best-looking and strongest terracotta available. It is dug from the banks of Echeconnee Creek, a few miles from my studio.
5 1/2 inches high and 8 wide.
Everything in this shop is handmade and one of a kind.
