The Blue And White Bird Basin Planter features a richly detailed bird and floral scene in layered shades of blue against a white ground. Flowing landscape elements and a geometric border around the rim give the design a composed, traditional character. Measuring 17 inches wide, 17 inches deep, and 11 inches high, its broad, round basin form makes a substantial decorative presence without appearing overly tall. Use it to hold a favorite potted houseplant or display it as a decorative centerpiece. Its generous proportions suit a living room floor, low plant stand, wide console, covered entry, or spacious sunroom. Pair it with warm wood furnishings, neutral upholstery, or other blue-and-white accents to highlight the intricate artwork and balanced silhouette. The planter’s tapered sides and softly flared rim complete its graceful profile.

Behind the form

It begins in the hands.

Before a piece is painted, its shape gives it character: the shoulder of a jar, the edge of a planter, the balance of a vase. The porcelain traditions behind our collection bring together forming, hand-painted detail, glazing, and firing.

A closer look

Notice how the painted line follows the form, and how the glaze catches the light.

At home with porcelain

A place for the details to live.

We like porcelain best when it feels part of everyday life, not set apart from it. A lamp can warm a reading corner; a jar can hold its own on a console. Blue-and-white pattern feels especially at ease beside wood, linen, and a little open space.

A room note

Give a favorite piece some breathing room, then let its color echo somewhere else nearby.
