From a rare class of culturally influenced, sculptural terracotta pots! The Metate planters are available in 3 distinct sizes. This Large has a short and wide oval-shaped basin perfect for large to midsize plants or young trees. The tripedal/three footed solid terracotta planter features unique design aesthetics, inspired by traditional Mexican kitchen tools like the metate or molcajete. The pot's deep belly floats 4"in/10cm above ground supported by the 3 sturdy, solid terracotta feet.

The entire exterior surface of each Metate pot features a heavy texture. This rough-hewn layer varies per pot adding dimension and authenticity. From a distance the scabrous surface is reminiscent of avocado skin, yet close-up it the texture is more similar to lava-rock. Each vintage vessel encompasses weathered finish, natural beauty, and novel history that can not be replicated. More about the color tone, texture, and terracotta make-up below.
