    Enhance your decor with this unique and exotic contemporary pot.

    Handcarved from native sesse wood, it's ideal for decorative use, or as a holder for a small flowering plant. Each pot is individually made by artisans of Ghana and stands approximately 20 inches tall. This piece is designed for indoor use.

    The Story Behind the Product

    Akwasi Agyeman was born into a family of 12 children in the small tribal village of Foase in Ghana, West Africa. The family was so poor that Akwasi was limited to only a 7th grade education in order to help his father farm to feed the family. In 7th grade his teacher asked each of them to make something for art class. Akwasi produced a Fertility Doll as his project and amazed the teacher. Akwasi knew then he had a natural talent for carving. After ten years and with the help of Fair trade Akwasi is now married with two handsome boys. He employs 15 people and has built a small three bedroom house for his family. Akwasi and his fellow artisans hope you enjoy their work.

  • Disappointed

    What I initially thought was a beautifully crafted flower pot turned out to be a flop. I purchased this item 3 weeks ago and I noticed that it has already started developing a long crack in the middle. I have no orher recourse but to throw it out as it has started leaking water when I water the plant. What a rip off:(.

  • Fun, unusual African flower pot

    Smaller than anticipated and can only hold a fairly small plant. When it arrived, the bottom was very uneven and made it wobbly. I sanded it to make it even and it's fine now, no more wobbling. Despite the problems, I just love this piece - it's unusual and interesting and I enjoy looking at it. I especially like that it has flaws in the carving - it looks hand carved and somewhat primitive. Better than pictured because actual finish is not as shiny as it appears.

  • Different

    Love the piece! Smaller than I would like. The opening is not very large so a big plant would not fit. Still trying to figure out how I will use it.

  • African Wood Plant Stand

    Product is all wood, but unexpectedly small for a plant stand. You will need the perfect area in order to show off the plant stand so that it is not missed.

How does the water drain from this planter? annettabartley1 on Mar 3, 2012
Answer This Question

The water comes from the bottom of the planter. You would want to let it drain first, then set it back on the hands. overstockcustomercare1 on Mar 6, 2012
