Description

The Halifax Planter Set is not just some boring pots you slap in your yard and forget about. These things have presence. They’ve got size, they’ve got grit, and honestly, they look damn good sitting anywhere. The terra cotta is all hand-finished and chunky in the right way, not that thin, mass-produced nonsense. You can actually feel the work that went into them. Built tough, fired so hot they’ll laugh at a little frost and wild weather. Actually, they might look even better after a few seasons outside, picking up all those moody weathered colors, so yeah, every set’s gonna end up with its own personality, thanks to the kiln doing its thing. No two turn out exactly the same, and that’s the charm, it’s a bit like getting a tattoo from a brilliant but unpredictable artist. The sizes? Spot on. Stack them, group them, whatever. Works, indoors or out. Makes any corner look like you called in a fancy designer, but you didn’t have to. Sure, technically it’s a planter set, but treat it right and you’re locking in some killer style for a long, long time. So go ahead, upgrade your space. You’ll thank yourself later.

Care & Maintenance/Outdoor Planting Instructions:

There is no such thing as a 100% frost-proof planter. The freeze-thaw cycles that occur in winter will cause any water in the container to freeze and expand which may cause the container to crack. It is best to store the item in a dry place out of the elements.

Halifax Planter Nested Set of 2 | Terra Cotta Collection Features:

• Crafted from high-temperature fired terra cotta
• Frost resistant
• Hand made artisan quality pottery
• High fired at 990 (terra cotta) to 1000 (glazed) degrees centigrade to maximize frost resistance and durability
• Less vulnerable to winter damage
• Appropriate for indoor and outdoor use
• Due to the nature of materials used, natural variations can occur in size weight and color

Traditional terra cotta planters are given added textural interest with a sandblasting technique. Color tones range from buff to burnt sienna. Campania’s glazed and terra cotta planters are hand made from natural clay using traditional artisanal techniques and high fired at temperatures between 990-1000 degrees centigrade to ensure frost resistance and durability. Glazed planters are coated with natural glazing elements that are baked onto the surface to enhance the products resistance to weathering.

Our Glazed and Terra Cotta planters are equipped with pre-installed drainage holes to allow for drainage. The drain holes must be kept clear to maintain the longevity of your planter, especially in climates that undergo freeze thaw cycles in the winter. If you are unable to bring a planter out of the elements:

We recommend covering the drain holes with a mesh screen or equivalent to keep debris from clogging the openings; Filling the bottom of the planter with non-porous drainage material; Filling the remainder of the planter with a well-draining soil mix that will not retain water; and lastly, covering the soil with decorative mulch or pine bark to the top rim of the planter to discourage water from pooling on the surface. For indoor use, Campania can source saucers for special orders and plugs are available upon request.

Cleaning Instructions: Campania’s Terra Cotta planters can be cleaned with mild soapy water. Spray down the surface of the planter where it is dirty and use a lint-free cloth, soft bristle brush or sponge to wipe the surface. Note that it may take several cycles of wiping and drying before the planter is completely clean. Do not pressure wash, use alcohol based cleaners, apply corrosive cleaners or clean with anything abrasive.
