The extra-large, frostproof Ancient Asteria bowl planter has beautiful large proportions, a glazed terracotta material and drainage holes, the perfect recipe that supporting healthy growth of your ornamental plants and trees through the seasons. Handmade over days using centuries-old techniques, each bowl is finished in a mineral-rich salt glaze that brings one-of-a-kind, antique character to the garden. Expertly delivered for peace of mind.

The Ancient Asteria is an extra large, frostproof bowl planter with drainage holes, designed for architectural planting, large shrubs and trees.

Architectural presence that anchors a garden design

The Asteria’s broad bowl shape gives tree roots room to spread, making it a generous home for trees of different sizes. Its wide opening also leaves space to underplant with bulbs or grasses, creating a layered composition that changes through the seasons. By lifting planting from ground level, the Asteria brings foliage, flowers and sculptural branches closer to eye level. Set it beside a seating area, at the end of a path or to frame an entrance, where its low, substantial form can anchor the wider garden design.

Handmade, one-of-a-kind pieces finished in a beautiful mineral-rich salt glaze

Each Asteria begins with a high-quality clay recipe chosen for strength and resilience. Pressed into moulds, the clay is air-dried and fired in a traditional kiln, then finished by hand with a premium salt glaze. As the pot is fired, minerals in the clay and glaze create the rich colour and textured surface that make the Ancient collection distinctive.

The firing and hand-finishing process gives every pot its own variation: no two are quite the same. Frost resistant and made to withstand all weather conditions, the Asteria can stay outdoors through the seasons. Its distinctive finish brings the garden the character of an antique find, with all the presence of a piece chosen to last.
