Three finishes meet on one pot. A creamy white glaze pools over the rim, a wide band of bare sandy terra-cotta runs through the middle, and a deep charcoal glaze washes the base. The bands are laid on by hand, so no two pots break at exactly the same line and the one you take home is its own piece.

At 8.5 inches round and 8.5 inches tall this is a floor and hearth size, not a windowsill size. It takes a standard 7 inch nursery pot straight from the garden center, so a fiddle leaf fig, a peace lily or a big trailing pothos can move in with no repotting and no mess. It carries real weight at just over five and a half pounds, which is exactly what you want under a top heavy plant.
