FAQs
What are the exact dimensions of this terrarium?
The terrarium measures approximately H:14.5 x W:10 x 10cm. Please note that sizes may vary slightly due to its handmade nature.
Can I plant a larger succulent in this terrarium?
This terrarium is designed for very small plants. Larger succulents will likely be too big and may not thrive due to limited space and potential for overwatering.
How should I clean the glass panels?
Use a soft, damp cloth to clean the glass. For tougher grime, a mild glass cleaner can be used, but be careful not to let it drip onto plants or soil.
Is the brass frame prone to rust?
The brass frame is designed for durability. While brass can develop a patina over time, it is generally resistant to rust. Regular gentle cleaning can maintain its appearance.
Can this terrarium be used outdoors?
This terrarium is intended for indoor use. Exposure to weather conditions and extreme temperature fluctuations could damage the glass and frame, and harm plants.
What kind of plants are best suited for this terrarium?
Small succulents, air plants (Tillandsia), mosses, and small artificial plants are ideal. Ensure any live plants have similar light and watering needs.
Does it come with plants or soil?
No, the terrarium is sold empty. You will need to provide your own plants, soil, and any decorative elements.
Troubleshooting
Glass panels are smudged or dirty.
Gently wipe the glass with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild glass cleaner sparingly and ensure it does not contact plants or soil.
Brass frame appears dull or tarnished.
Use a designated brass cleaner and a soft cloth to polish the frame, restoring its shine. Follow product instructions carefully.
Condensation is excessive inside the terrarium.
Open the terrarium slightly to allow for air circulation, or temporarily remove plants to let it dry out. Reduce watering frequency for live plants.
Plants inside appear unhealthy or overgrown.
Assess the plant's needs for light and water. If overgrown, consider repotting into a larger container or replacing with smaller specimens.
