Atlantis Juliet Planter

The Atlantis Juliet Planter is the small end of the Atlantis range: hand-made Vietnamese ceramic in two sizes, 21 x 16cm holding 5L and 31 x 26cm holding 15L. Both are double-fired for frost resistance and finished in the same richly textured aged glaze as the large pieces, so a small planter still carries real surface interest. At 2.5kg and 7kg empty, this is the one Atlantis shape you can pick up and move on your own.

Why you'll love it

• The aged glaze at a usable size. The textured finish weathers like a relic, so a 21cm pot on a shelf has the same character as a 100L urn.
• Light enough to rearrange. 2.5kg and 7kg empty means you can shift it between indoors and out, or move it off a table when you need the space.
• Double-fired for frost resistance. Small pots are the ones left out in winter, and the second firing is what lets this one cope.
• Buys well in multiples. Two sizes in one profile group naturally along a step, a windowsill or a bench.

Sizes and what fits in them

Both measurements are outside dimensions, diameter by height.

• 21 x 16cm, 5L, 2.5kg. A single 140mm plant: a small indoor foliage plant, a succulent, or a pot of herbs by the kitchen door.
• 31 x 26cm, 15L, 7kg. A 200mm plant with room to grow on, a compact shrub, or a clump of strappy-leaf for a balcony corner.

Material, weathering and drainage

Material. Hand-made ceramic from Vietnam, double-fired and glazed by hand, so colour depth and texture vary between pieces. Buying two does not get you two identical pots.

Outdoors. Double firing gives the frost resistance, and the aged glaze is meant to mellow outdoors rather than stay uniform. Raise it on feet so water escapes freely underneath.

Drainage. It has drainage holes and they must stay clear. Cover them with a single layer of fibreglass flyscreen, never fabric or geofabric, which clog. Add a 50mm layer of 10mm gravel, then a quality premium potting mix, never garden soil. Indoors, always stand it on a saucer.

What to expect when it arrives

Planters ship empty and unplanted, packed to travel upright, and are dispatched in 2 to 5 business days. Delivered Australia wide, with delivery from $29.95. The 21 x 16cm size is genuinely small at 5L, so check the measurements against your plant before ordering rather than judging by the photograph.
