There is something about putting a living plant into a handmade pot that changes both of them. The pot stops being an object and becomes part of something growing, and the plant finds a home that feels like it was always meant for it.

The Irish called it cailleach dhearg, the Red Hag, and once named it the Witches Flower for its habit of appearing where it had no right to be, blazing from field edges, pushing through cracks in stone, refusing to be tamed. This pot captures that defiant spirit. Bold red poppies and butterflies, painted in vivid underglaze, wind around the soft square form and finish under a glossy transparent glaze. My hidden ladybird is tucked somewhere among them. An organic, uneven form that feels exactly the way handmade things should feel.

These are designed as cache pots, no drainage hole, no saucer needed. Simply pop your plant inside in its nursery pot. It keeps things mess-free and means you can swap plants in and out as the seasons change.
