Planters
Handcrafted and bioclimatic Planter
A planter made from natural clay preserves the same porosity that earth has in the ground. That porosity lets the soil breathe and allows water to evaporate slowly, creating a stable micro-climate around the roots. In summer, evaporation dissipates excess heat and cools the plant; in winter, the ceramic mass retains a portion of the warmth accumulated during the day, softening sudden drops in temperature.
Each piece is shaped on the wheel at a deliberate rhythm: the potter kneads the clay, centres it, and raises the cylinder with near-millimetric precision. After a natural air-drying period that prevents internal stress, the planter is fired above 1,000 °C—hot enough to consolidate its structure without sealing its pores. The result is a robust, permeable wall free of glazes or industrial additives.
The outcome is a living container that works in favour of plant health and, unlike glazed or plastic pots, delivers passive bioclimatic performance with no external systems required.
Design that evolves over time
The beauty of these planters lies not only in the cylinder’s pure form but in the story each piece tells as it lives alongside the plant. Water dissolves mineral salts that migrate to the surface, creating one-of-a-kind veils: no pot ages the same, and every patina records humidity, sun exposure, and watering habits.
Warm terracotta and straw-white tones blend effortlessly with Mediterranean, Nordic, or contemporary spaces, highlighting the green of the foliage. Details such as a refined rim that eases repotting, a stable base that distributes weight, and a guide point for opening drainage when required show that handcrafted precision can coexist with functionality.
Local production lowers the carbon footprint and sustains traditional crafts, while the durability of clay reduces reliance on disposable plastics. Choosing an artisanal, bioclimatic planter means bringing home an object that protects the plant, embellishes the space, and supports a more sustainable cycle of consumption.
