Wheel-thrown Trailmix Dark Chocolate stoneware | 3.5" diameter × 2.5" tall | Black micro paracord hanger | Oregon clay
Petite. Purposeful. Completely sure of itself.
This tiny hanging planter was wheel-thrown in my Portland studio from Trailmix Dark Chocolate stoneware — a deep, near-black clay that means business — then finished in Cinnabar, a satin glaze created by the glaze technician at Morning Ceramics Studio in Portland. I applied it in deliberate layers, dipping to build depth at the base and letting it go almost sheer where it meets the dark clay at the rim. That landscape line where coral meets black wasn't an accident. It was the whole point.
The result is a glaze that glows at the base — warm, saturated coral deepening where the layers are thickest — and quietly dissolves toward the rim into something more atmospheric, more like the last trace of color at the edge of a sunset than a pot that was dipped in glaze on a Tuesday afternoon. The satin finish catches light without demanding it.
At 3.5" wide and just 2.5" tall this is the smallest planter in the collection — genuinely petite, genuinely perfect for a single air plant, a tiny succulent, or anything else that deserves a vessel with more personality than its size suggests.
The hanger is braided black micro paracord, twisted by hand to complement the depth of the Trailmix Dark Chocolate clay body.
One of a kind — and the first in a growing Cinnabar family. More pieces in this glaze are coming; this is where it begins.
A note on how this is made: The interior is intentionally left unglazed — raw stoneware breathes in a way glazed clay simply can't, and your plant roots will thank you for it. There are no drainage holes, because this planter is designed to be used with a grow pot nestled inside. Slip your plant in its nursery pot, hang it up, and lift it out easily to water properly and check on root health without ceremony or mess. The bottom is finished with as much care as the outside — smooth, clean, and beautiful — because when something hangs overhead, the view from below matters just as much as the view from across the room.
