Description

A small vintage pot that embodies and emanates the primitive indigenous artisan culture from which it was created. Discovered and reimagined to be an authentic planter in your home. The color varies greatly on this pot *not painted. Covered largely in deep gun smoke blue like an overcast sky that is about to produce rain. This transitions into  shades of peach and orange terracotta. The finish is smooth similar to chalk board. The color is 100% natural, via decades of rain, oxidization, and exposure to elements. Hand-thrown from terracotta this particular planter has a fluted neck with beveled rim. 

    This vintage planter can be used as a stand-alone sculptural vase, but also perfect for planting a variety of small to medium size plants.
