These handy pots work well as a companion for our terracotta seedling pots. Start seeds off in the smaller pots and pot them on into these as they grow. They’re also great for planting up a trio of kitchen herbs, either for your own culinary endeavours or for gifting.

The pots are hand thrown in Turkey by Argun and his son, 3rd and 4th generation potters from the Izmir region on the Aegean coast. Made using local clay, they will age to a wonderful patina as the salts slowly leach to the surface. Though fired to 1080°C to make them as frost resistant as possible, we would always suggest moving them into a sheltered spot in the colder months.

To keep your pots in tip-top condition please read our ‘Assembly and care instructions’ PDF for more detailed advice.

Any white specks in the terracotta are lime granules, which occur naturally in raw Turkish clay. Sometimes when a pot is fired, the clay around them can split out a little, but this won't compromise the strength of the finished product. The lime helps to bind the clay and ultimately makes for a stronger pot.

Please note: as these pots are thrown by hand, they will vary slightly in height and diameter from batch to batch, so the measurements below are approximate. Supplied with a drainage hole.
