Scalamandre Pondicherry Planter, Blue, Cream, Brass, 14"W ACBS-387-02

by Port 68 ACBS-387-02

Palampores, or tree-of-life patterns have origins in India, where the exotic designs were hand painted & mordant dyed - then exported to Europe & England for use as elaborate bed hangings & curtains. Scalamandre's timeless tree-of-life print, Pondicherry, is offered in rich blues on cream crackled porcelain for today's classic interior. The grand scale of the exotic tree is softened with finely detailed flowers & foliage & is accented with small birds & animals. This is typical of this historic & favored fabric design. The Pondicherry quatrefoil planter is scaled for four, 6" diameter plants such as orchids for an easy, yet perfect centerpiece. Place the four plants in the shaped planter, then add the custom florist detail by adding moss as filler for a finishing touch. You may also place a single plant for an elegant statement on the dining table.
