Ivyline 13cm reactive glaze pot, emerald
A desk plant pot that looks like it came from a pottery, each one glazed a little differently.
The catch The listing says it is sealed to be fully waterproof, which means no drainage hole: the plant has to stay in a plastic nursery pot inside it, or the roots will sit in water

Is it worth it?
Yes, as a Secret Santa for someone with a plant on their desk. The Ivyline reactive glaze pot is 13cm across, hand-finished and made in Portugal, and the reactive glaze means no two are quite the same. It is a cover pot: sealed and waterproof, so the plant stays in its plastic pot inside and nothing leaks onto the desk.
