Other Ideas for Use
all4mimi  from Richmond, VA,  Mar 30, 2008
I received this item 2 years ago as a Christmas gift. The opening is very small, making it difficult to use as a plant stand for a live plant. I would suggest either putting a candle pillar inside or some sort of dried grass. I have a small bundle of ornamental bamboo tied together inside mine and it looks great. I am ordering another one and plan to use them as fireplace accessories by placing one on each side. I would agree with some of the other customers that the item is "slightly" overpriced. However, it's a very unique item and difficult to find a comparable item in stores.

I love this piece! I am not using it as a flower pot, but I have it sitting in a corner on a small leather table and it simply looks like a piece of art! WONDERFUL!!!!

Very unique item
msanton1  from Wilmington, DE,  Jan 8, 2008
The item is very unique and looks just like the picture. I don't know if the opening is big enough to fit a plant or pot inside since I am just using this flower pot as a decoration by my front door. I really like the design of this flower pot and perhaps one day I will add a flower to it.

Very Pleased
van615  from Easton, PA,  Nov 7, 2007
I was very pleased with this item. The overall size is great, but the 'pot' is a little small. I do not used it as a planter, instead I use it to hold small items . I think it is unique and a good value.

carved plant stand
hjk458  from Pennsylvania,  Aug 28, 2007
the plant stand was quite small and not steady. It wasn't as tall or as durable as I had wished.

The African Flower Pot is a good example of carved products from Ghana, it is rustic and very typical of the region, I like it's appearance. It really should be described as a Flower Pot holder, as it is carved from wood, and I would not plant directly in it. It fits in perfectly with my decor, however I think it is somewhat overpriced.

Very Pleased!
kdab  from Detroit,  Aug 22, 2007
I am very pleased with my purchase of the Ghana flower pot. It is very nice and the details are wonderful. Although it is a tad bit small to use as a flower pot, I did not purchase it with the intention of such use. It is a very nice addition to my collection.

Wonderful Addition
andrades  from Brooklyn Park, Minnesota,  May 21, 2007
I recently purchased this flower pot and it is gorgeous! I had read the other reviews mentioning the small size and decided to put a silk fern inside instead of a live one. It looks fantastic. No one can tell the difference and I have sitting next to live plants.

misclassification
lawsiep  from Georgia,  Nov 16, 2006
This item is too small,it cannot hold a flower pot. Maybe I did not pay attention the the dimensions. It is actually quite nice just small. Ii would be better classified as a candle holder.

BEAUTIFUL AFRICAN PLANT STAND
sassysexy  from Arlington, VA,  Oct 28, 2006
As everyone stated, the pot, itself, is very small. Otherwise, it is a beautiful, very well detailed carving. It was an excellent bargain as I have seen similar ones which cost twice as much.

The carving is nice. However, the container for the plant is actually very small. It will hold about a 4" pot. Plus its only about 3" deep. The plant in the picture looks much larger than what you would find in a pot that size.

The plant stand is beautiful. The pot holder could be a bit larger. I would purchase again.

Loved it!
bjtuck  from University Hts, OH,  Sep 11, 2006
The flower pot was not exactly as illustrated, but better. It's very majestic. The only objection I have is that it is rather wobbly. I remedied that by gluing some of that rubber shelf liner to the bottom with spray adhesive, to make it completely level.

Flower pot was a bit smaller than expected. Nonetheless, it is indeed a unique piece that I plan to keep.The hand carving is detailed and the height is also good. Could be used as a stand alone piece as well as a flower pot.
