Københavner Flowerpot white saucer glazed

The Københavner or Copenhagen pot is one of Bergs Potter's first designs. The immediate inspiration was the ceramics made at the Royal Palace of Fredensborg. It is still one of the most popular designs today, still handmade in a ceramic workshop in Tuscany from raw terracotta and glazed to produce the classic colours associated with Copenhagen. The pots are not soaked in chemicals or silicone (except for the saucer, to ensure it is airtight), so they will absorb water visibly, which promotes root respiration. We recommend soaking the pot for 30 minutes before planting in it, so that the clay does not absorb all the moisture from the soil.
