FAQs
Is this jar made of real terracotta?
It features an aged terracotta-effect finish, designed to replicate the look of natural clay while providing a more versatile, lightweight, and durable experience.
Does it have a drainage hole?
The jar does not come with a pre-drilled drainage hole. We recommend using an internal liner or plastic pot for easy plant maintenance.
Can I leave this outside in winter?
While durable for outdoor use, we recommend bringing it indoors during winter to protect the antique finish from harsh frost and ice damage.
What are the exact dimensions?
The jar is 43cm in height and has a diameter of 26cm at its widest point.
Is it heavy?
It is designed to be lighter than solid clay or stone, making it easy to reposition around your home or garden as needed.
Troubleshooting
Visible water residue on the outside
If the jar is used outdoors, ensure the soil level is not exceeding the top of the internal pot; wipe down with a damp cloth after rain.
Surface finish appears dulled
Gently wipe with a slightly damp cloth to remove dust. Do not use waxes or polishes, as these may alter the intended matte antique aesthetic.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your jar lasts for years, follow these guidelines:
- Placement: Choose a level surface to prevent tipping, especially if placing the jar in high-traffic outdoor walkways.
- Drainage: If using outdoors, consider placing a layer of gravel at the base if you intend to plant directly, or ensure your internal liner has holes to prevent water buildup.
- Cleaning: Wipe the exterior gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, which can strip the antique-effect finish.
- Winter Care: Move the jar indoors during freezing winter months. Even if rated for outdoor use, extreme freeze-thaw cycles can put stress on any decorative material.
