Garden Pot Julie - Rosa

Less is More - When the designer Ninetta Mariani created the Julie Pot, she exclaimed: “It can’t be done simpler than this!” This was in Milan in 1960, and today we can only concur. Perfection is achieved when there is nothing left to take away from a design. In this simple yet charming pot, your plant will always be the centre of attention.

• made in Italy, designed in Denmark
  
• each pot varies in color variations and textures due to the handmade nature of each pot adding a little extra character to each one!

A note on Freckling 

Let's talk a little bit about 'freckles'. This is what we have named the little visible grains of colour that occasionally appears on our natural raw clay pots.

The reason for the freckles is that we use organic and untreated Italian Galestro clay - the best clay available. The 'freckles' are tiny pieces of calcium or other minerals that are naturally found in the clay.

The freckles are more pronounced on some lots of clay due to variations in soil conditions in Tuscany, Italy. However, it is a characteristic that many of the Italian potters think is a beautiful characteristic. And so do we.

As with us humans - freckles is a sign of summer. The same goes for pots. Most often 'freckle formation' occurs during the summer period when it is ridiculously hot, and the clay dries faster. So, when you see a freckled pot - you know that it is 'summer baby - produced during the hot and sunny season.

It often happens the 'freckles' are loose and fall of and leaves a bit of residue. Luckily, this only happens once. We therefore advise, to soak and wash the pots with a soft brush before using - and you will avoid cleaning up 'fallen freckles'.

We hope you love our pots - freckles or not.

 

More on Bergs Potter

The raw clay pots by Bergs Potter are made of premium Italian clay, fired at extremely high temperatures — and nothing else. No chemicals — just the pure beauty of nature. Each of the raw terracotta pots is inherently natural, ages gracefully, and develops a beautiful patina over time. The saucers are given a special finish that makes them waterproof and prevents mould from developing. Whether they are used as a centrepiece for the dining table, to grace the window sill, or to house a large plant on your wooden floors, the beautiful pots will help add a touch of nature to every corner of the home.

Made to live for generations - Bergs Originals are Bergs Potter’s popular, raw terracotta pots in timeless designs, all made to last for generations. Our roots run deep, and it all began during one of the bleakest periods of World War II. Our founder, Victor Berg, inherited a ceramics shop in the Nørrebro district of Copenhagen and built Bergs Potter to fulfil his dream of bringing a little more life and colour into the war-depressed lives of his fellow Copenhageners. A lot has happened since 1942, but one thing remains the same…Plants make people thrive.

Breathing pots - Bergs Potter’s terracotta pots are made with Italy’s finest clay. The minerals in the clay and its high density give the pots the perfect balance of strength and porosity, allowing the pots to breathe and making them naturally resistant to frost. When a pot is watered, it changes colour, which means it breathes. When the pot breathes, it can supply moisture and air to the roots, giving the plant the best possible conditions for growth. Terracotta is a porous material, and the evaporation of water through its pores helps maintain moisture levels and airflow, while the clay’s insulating properties help regulate root temperature.
