Plain Terracotta Pots
This section shows our widest range of pots. They have little or no decoration, save bands at key points like the shoulder, body and foot which historically would have been added to aid movement of the pots. Styles range from multifunctional planters like the Conca Classica and Trombo to pots designed for a particular plant or purpose, such as the Camellia Pot and Conca Bassa. This range can accommodate planting applications from flowering bulb and bedding to large shrubs, small fruit trees and specimens such as buxus, bay and olive trees. If you are unsure of a particular pot's suitability for your intended planting, please contact us. You can see planted examples of many of the pots featured in this range in our gallery.

Vaso Imprunetino

Pienza

Conca Classica
This is the classic Italian design of pot and sits happily in all garden styles, both formal and informal.

Our best selling pot and available in several sizes as well as in grey terracotta.
Vaso Firenze
Typically Tuscan in style, our Firenze planter has straighter sides than many other designs giving slightly more depth, making it a good choice for fruit trees and larger shrubs. Decorated with a shallow band under the attractive rolled rim and two deeper bands towards the base, its slightly scratched finish give this solid planter a more rustic look. Suitable for both a formal garden and a more relaxed setting, this pot is a great all-rounder.
