Half Sphere Terra Cotta Planter

Made by talented hands, these pots are straight out of Tunisia.

Here’s what you can do with them:

1. Succulents and Cacti: Just right for adding a touch of the desert.
2. Kitchen Herbs: Got a sunny windowsill? Plant some basil or mint, and watch them grow.

Now, one thing to keep in mind: these pots don’t have drainage hole. But you know what I do? Line the base with about an inch of rocks. That way, your plants won’t sit water.

Monia Rassaa, the brain behind Ekho, hails from Tunisia, and she’s got skills, honey! A product designer, potter, and an academic with a Ph.D. in “the regeneration of traditional Nabeul ceramics.” Now, that’s something!

What’s special about Monia’s work is how she weaves the old with the new. She takes those traditional and ancestral influences from her culture and blends them with a modern twist. The result? Utilitarian terra cotta objects that ain’t just practical, they tell a story.

And, let me tell you, Monia doesn’t go it alone. She teams up with local artisans back home to bring her designs to life. It’s like a meeting of minds and hands, all working together to create something that’s not just a piece of pottery, but a piece of history. It’s a way to connect with the past while keeping it fresh and alive. Now, that’s what I call creativity! 🏺
