Luxury Pots and Planters

Mostly as sets, which is the defining feature of this range. Sets of three, four, five and six are available depending on the silhouette, and a set of three ribbed planters starts at $269.95. The exceptions are the 40cm luxury cylinders in matt black and matt white, which are sold singly at $199.95, and the two-size rounded marble and tall marble cylinder planters.

They are frequently bought for exactly that. A high-quality artificial specimen and a matt-finish premium vessel are a natural pairing, because the pot carries the visual weight and the foliage supplies the detail. The practical advantage is that a fake plant will not stain a matt white surface with water marks or fertiliser residue, which is the most common way a premium pot gets ruined. Add ballast in the base of the taller cylinders, since an artificial specimen adds almost no weight.

The rounded ribbed planters carry vertical fluting that catches a shadow and adds relief, which is worth having against a plain wall or in flat, even lighting. The smooth cylinders and soft tapered bowls read as clean geometry and suit a space that already has plenty of texture in the joinery or flooring. Both are offered in matt white and matt black, so the finish decision can be made independently of the shape.

This range is set-led and finish-led, with sculptural silhouettes intended to be seen as objects. The office planter range is position-led, mixing 14cm desk pots, wall-mounted planters and 71cm foyer pieces so one order covers a whole workplace floor. Executive areas often use the luxury sets while general floors use the office range.

The marble tall cylinder and the 40cm matt cylinders are the vessels in this range with the height and the base width to hold a tall specimen upright. A teardrop balloon or an ovate narrows towards the opening, so it supports a rounded or spreading form better than a single tall stem. For anything above about two metres, weight the vessel internally before planting.

The trough sets of three in matt white and matt black are commonly used to edge a terrace or a courtyard dining area, where their straight sides create a line that round pots cannot. In an exposed position, check the drainage arrangement on the product page and keep the matt white finish out of heavy leaf litter, which stains a pale matt surface more readily than a dark one.

Yes, and it works best when the silhouette is held constant rather than the finish. A set of ovates in matt white alongside a set of ovates in matt black reads as a deliberate pairing, whereas mixing a white ribbed set with a black teardrop set usually reads as two schemes sharing a room. Matt grey, available in the soft tapered bowl set, sits comfortably between the two.

Matt surfaces show scuffing more readily than glossy ones, so slide rather than drag them and lift by the base rather than the rim. Marble-effect bodies are the more forgiving of the two because the pattern disguises minor marks. Clean with a damp cloth only, since abrasive cleaners will polish a patch of a matt finish and leave a permanent bright spot.
