Hand carved out of alabaster that is so beautiful, it will take your breath away. A drainage hole at the bottom will keep your plants happy, whether you choose to put soil directly in the planter or opt to use a plastic liner pot straight from the plant shop. If you choose to put soil directly in the planter, note that you will get efflorescence along the vein lines (the salt in the stone migrates to the surface as with terracotta). We think that’s interesting.
Note, though, that it is amazing as a lantern as well, and you might want to have the flexibility of switching the end use up. To use as a lantern just put a small glass votive candle inside. Remember to never leave a lit candle unattended.
