Black Volcanic Pots | Su Leaver

£22.00

These unusual clay plant pots are round with an irregular gritty surface, the opening is rough and jagged like a cracked egg shell. Each piece is totally unique. They look beautiful with a verdant house plant toppling over their sides, either hung in one of Planted House's wire hangers or placed leaning on a shelf.

The clay Su uses ranges from dark brown to black with inclusions of white molachite, it becomes blacker the higher it is fired. The initial shape is formed by slump or hump moulds and then hand-building follows. The surface is scraped back with a metal tool to reveal the molochite and more liquid clay added and washed back to create a rock like surface.

Small: 9cm

Medium: 15cm

Large: 20cm

Extra Large: 29cm

These plant pots are unglazed and have a small hole in the bottom. We find using a plant tray inside works well to catch the water should you want to keep the plant inside in a plastic nursery pot.
