Cretan Pot Kasteli

Product Details

Kasteli and our other extraordinary Cretan Pots are thrown by hand, then fired for hours in wood-burning kilns that give them a soft and variable shade of tan, which changes with the light and the pots’ contents. Shapes are drawn from Classical-era containers that were then, and are now, common household items in Crete. They provide a look that is both traditional and informal, and we’ve given them prominent positions throughout our gardens and in our home.

They are marvelous grouped together, since each form seems to flatter every other. Dimensions are for the widest diameter (including handles) by height of pot. Keep from freezing in winter.

The pattern of horizontal bands on our Kasteli pot adds a decorative touch to the display of a wide variety of annuals and ornamentals. Its wide, rimmed opening is easy to fill with potting soil and plants, and it’s equally easy to empty.
