Designer Plants Five Key Technologies
The UVTex, RealTex and FireTex technologies apply to Designer Plants foliage and not to pottery, so no claim is made about them here. What can be said about this edit is narrower and more useful: recycled-material bodies, moulded relief patterns rather than printed ones, and a size band that stops at 25cm for the free-standing pieces.
A Compact Designer Pot Edit for Colour and Pattern
This is a deliberately narrow selection rather than a full catalogue. Eight pieces cover the small end of the size range, where pattern and colour do the work, plus one pedestal planter for a room needing a focal object. Sizes run from 14cm to a 45cm wall-mounted planter, priced $14.95 to $249.95. It suits anyone after two or three pots that talk to each other rather than a whole scheme.
Working at the small end of the size ladder
The 14cm engraved pots take a 100mm nursery pot, the 17cm take a 130mm, and the 25cm imitation marble and glossy blue pots take a 200mm. Leave 20mm to 30mm of clearance so the specimen lifts out cleanly. Anything above 25cm sits outside this edit, and the round designer pots carry the 40cm, 47cm and 71cm diameters instead.
Pattern, colour and where each one lands
The engraved pots carry a raised relief in yellow or black on white and read best in a group, where the pattern repeats. The imitation marble and glossy blue pots are single statements that work harder alone on a shelf. The rounded marble planter with pedestal base, in two sizes, is the object here meant to be looked at rather than filled.
Choosing two or three that sit together
The reliable approach is one colour repeated at two heights, such as a 14cm and a 17cm engraved pot in the same finish, then one contrasting piece. The onyx black half moon planters at 35cm and 45cm add a third plane without using shelf space. If the diameter is unclear, call 1800 617 341, or browse the wider planters range.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size nursery pot fits a 25cm designer plant pot?
A standard 200mm nursery pot drops into a 25cm decorative pot with a little room to spare, which is what you want for lifting it back out. The 25cm sizes in this edit are the red and white imitation marble pot, the green and white imitation marble pot and the glossy blue garden pot. If the specimen is in a 250mm nursery pot, step up to a 40cm pot from the round range rather than forcing the fit.
Can these designer plant pots hold fake plants without an insert?
Yes. A fake plant with a moulded base or its own nursery pot sits directly inside the decorative pot with no soil and no liner, and a handful of pebbles or florist foam holds it upright if the stem is loose. Because nothing is watered, the engraved relief finish on the 14cm and 17cm pots stays clean indefinitely, which is the main reason these small formats are so often bought for shelves and bathrooms.
Are the engraved pots better bought singly or in a group?
In a group. The raised relief pattern on the yellow and white and black and white engraved pots is fine-grained, so it reads as texture from a distance rather than as a motif. Two or three together at 14cm and 17cm let the pattern repeat and register, which a single pot on a wide shelf does not achieve.
How does this range differ from the round designer pots collection?
This edit is small-format and pattern-led, topping out at 25cm for the free-standing pieces. Round designer pots carry the full diameter ladder from 14cm up to 71cm, including the 40cm imitation stone and 47cm textured rounds, and are organised by shape rather than by pattern. Use this page for a shelf or a hall table, and the round range when a floor specimen needs matching.
What is the pedestal planter in this range for?
The luxury rounded marble planter with pedestal base lifts the bowl off the surface on a stem, so the planting sits at eye level on a console or in an entry. It comes in two sizes and starts at $249.95, which places it well above the rest of this edit. It is the one piece here intended as a standalone object rather than part of a group.
Do the wall planters need a stud to fix into?
The 35cm and 45cm floating half moon planters are metal and light enough for plasterboard anchors when planted with a compact artificial specimen. A stud fixing is still the safer choice for the 45cm, particularly if a live plant and damp potting mix will be added, since wet media roughly doubles the loaded weight.
Can these pots go outside?
The glossy blue garden pot and the imitation marble pots handle a covered balcony or a sheltered patio without trouble. Small pots in full exposure blow over easily once a light artificial specimen is in them, so weight the base with gravel or move up to a 40cm size. For a position in permanent sun and rain, the imitation stone range is the more suitable starting point.
Is there a matching larger pot for a floor specimen?
Not within this eight-piece edit, which is why it is worth treating as a shelf and tabletop selection. For floor sizes the closest finish matches are the 40cm imitation stone pots and the 47cm and 71cm textured rounds, all of which sit in the wider planters range. Ordering a small pot and a floor pot from the same finish family keeps a room coherent.

Commercial Grade. Made for Lasting Impact.
Short pot edits get specified for styling work rather than fit-outs, which usually means display homes, short-stay apartments and retail vignettes where two or three vessels have to carry a whole surface.
Repeat units for styling stock. The 14cm and 17cm engraved pots are the ones stylists reorder, because they photograph well in pairs and stack for storage between jobs.
One focal piece per room. The rounded marble planter with pedestal base in either of its two sizes is the object that anchors a hall or a lobby table, and it is usually ordered singly rather than in multiples.
Wall planes without fixings into joinery. The 35cm and 45cm onyx black half moon planters mount to plasterboard and give a third display plane in a tight apartment where every surface is already used.
Availability on the pedestal sizes is confirmed on enquiry.
