A little slice of mid-century joy.
This 1960s rectangular planter is everything we love about vintage American art pottery — architectural, textural, and that perfect speckled glaze. Glossy turquoise with warm brown flecks, finished with a dramatic scalloped rim and that graphic zig-zag / triangle relief pattern around the sides.
She's sturdy, substantial, and ready for her next life. Ideal for a windowsill fern, succulents, spring bulbs, or as a catch-all for your desk. The colour is so good in person — a true minty sea-glass green that photographs beautifully but glows even more on the shelf.
