Raquel green
A handmade terracotta plant pot with a rich green shade, strongly textured surface and rounded form that tapers subtly towards the top opening. Light highlights the small variations in texture and gives the colour greater depth, while its full silhouette creates a stable base for plants with lush or strongly patterned foliage.
A textured surface that comes alive as the light changes
The Raquel’s texture creates small shifts of light and shadow so the green shade never appears flat. The broader rounded body provides visual stability, while the narrower opening keeps the composition gathered around the plant and highlights its foliage.

Frequently asked questions
What nursery-pot size fits inside the Raquel?
It is suitable for plants in Ø13–14 cm nursery pots. Because the actual rim and shape vary between pots, measure the external diameter at the top before placing it inside.
Why is the plant pot Ø19 cm but designed for a smaller nursery pot?
The 19 cm measurement is the plant pot’s maximum external diameter. The Raquel tapers towards the top, so the compatible nursery-pot size is Ø13–14 cm.
Does it have a drainage hole?
No. The Raquel is used as a decorative pot cover, with the plant kept in its nursery pot.
Can I plant directly in the decorative pot?
Keep the plant in its nursery pot inside so watering and drainage can be controlled more easily.
Is it suitable for outdoor use?
The Raquel is intended for decorative indoor use, protected from constant moisture and changing weather conditions.
