Each handmade pot is different to the next, made exclusively for Pink Buffalo. There will be individual kiln marks and each glaze may differ in colour from one pot to the next.

There are no two pots the same, each individual glaze adds to their uniqueness and handmade quality.

Are our pots handmade?

Yes, each and every pot is completely handmade. Each process is completed by a skilled pot maker, expert in their particular stage of the process. No machines are used at any stage.

Sizing Info

All pot measurements are external measurements not necessarily the size of the opening at the top.
As our range is completely handmade, the measurements and weight may vary slightly from the details on website.

Materials

Our outdoor pots are not porous as they are fired at extremely high temperatures. They are made from a top quality, dense and heavy clay. Suitable for very low temperatures.

Care Instructions

Extra crock or large pebbles in the bottom of your pots always works well to provide additional drainage. If you wish to regularly change what is planted (e.g. annuals) we recommend you use a filler pot, please see demo video.
As our outdoor pots all have a high quality glaze, they are happy to be left outside all year round.
If you decide not to use the filler pots, and are planting your pot with a perennial, we would advise adding an additional liner to create a barrier between clay and soil. Please bear in mind your pot will become extremely heavy once fully filled in this way and may not be easily movable.

Provenance:

All of our outdoor pots are hand made in Vietnam following an age old authentic process in original kilns. After months of research, we have narrowed our search down to working closely with three manufacturers, highly skilled in their craft. A time-consuming process using a dense, heavy clay and hand poured glaze. With this process, each pot can take up to 12 weeks to produce.
