SKYPHOS POT

A Greek Style Planter Straight From Antiquity

This ancient Greek planter reproduces the iconic skyphos form faithfully, with a gently tapered body, a slightly flared rim, and a sturdy, flat base. It is then finished in an aged color assortment that makes each handcrafted ceramic pot look unearthed rather than manufactured.

Part of our Tuscan Sun collection, every Skyphos is a high-fired ceramic planter shaped by hand, which means the weathered patina, tone, and texture vary charmingly from piece to piece. Two sizes are offered, a large at 6 inches by 8 inches and a medium at 4.5 inches by 6 inches, making this classical garden planter ideal for small scale planting rather than big statement borders.

Which Plants Go Well With the Skyphos Planter

So what grows well in it? Our product photography shows it planted with a succulent rosette, and that is exactly its sweet spot. Echeveria, haworthia, small aloe, sedum, and compact cacti all thrive in this decorative garden planter, and we bundle it with succulent and cactus potting mix for that reason. It also suits small herbs like thyme or a trailing string of pearls spilling over one handle. Cluster a few together on outdoor steps or a Mediterranean style planter display, or keep one indoors on a sunny sill as a daily reminder of the Aegean.

Complete the Mediterranean Look

To complete the antiquity theme, this handcrafted outdoor planter pairs perfectly with the Olive No Rim Jar and the Vase del Meson set, both carrying the same sun weathered Tuscan character that defines a luxury garden planter collection.
