Large Moroccan Cream-Glazed Open Planter with Brass & Copper Metalwork Band

Size: 22"W x 24"H x 22"D - (Mouth Opening: 19"W)

SKU#: VA161

A large open planter in the Moroccan ceramic tradition, hand-thrown in a wide, full-bellied form and finished in a warm cream glaze. The body shows the honest marks of how it was made — throwing lines, gentle speckling, and the kind of uneven tone that comes from a wood or gas kiln rather than a factory. It's a piece that looks better the closer you get to it.

A wide band of hand-worked brass and copper wraps the shoulder, detailed with embossed palmette and teardrop shapes between beaded wire borders and a scalloped lower edge. A thinner copper strip rings the foot. The warm metal tones and the cream glaze sit naturally together — nothing fights.

Large enough to hold a substantial indoor plant or a generous arrangement of dried stems, and strong enough to work as a floor object on its own. Suits a living room corner, entryway, covered patio, or courtyard, and feels at home in traditional, Moorish, rustic, bohemian, and Mediterranean settings.
