THE TRAVEL LOG OF YOUR PLANTPATIO POT
THE ORIGIN
IT ALL STARTS IN THE SOIL
Terracotta (from italian terra cotta) literally means baked soil. Your Plantpatio pot is born in Portugal, in lands of clay where minerals are so small (<2µm) that they form a shapeable paste when moistened.

THE SHAPING
ART IN THE HANDS OF THE ARTISAN
Plantpatio pots are hand shaped, one at a time, by skilled artisans. The perfectly pressed and moistened clay is shaped in a circular movement on a pottery wheel, a tool with over 5000 years of history.

BAKING AND DECORATION
THE FOLKLORE THAT BRIGHTENS THE CERAMICS
Once shaped, your Plantpatio pot is baked at 900ºC until it hardens. It is then glazed and again baked, this time at 1150ºC to further harden and seal. The colors and decorative patterns bring us close to the heritage and folklore of its origins, a cultural expression that is 100% authentic.
