While from the same Deccan Collection as Vittala, Hampi’s form is significantly wider and lower than Vittala. This means Hampi can take larger, fuller plants — it has the volume for a generous Ficus, a sprawling Monstera, a lush herb cluster.
Forest doesn’t announce itself. It simply occupies space with the confidence of a material that has nothing to prove. The matte graphite body makes the Vijayanagara lattice read as actual carved stone — the gloss rim catches light while the body absorbs it. This is the Hampi for rooms already designed with intent: stone floors, linen sofas, concrete walls. Plant it with silver or pale foliage and step back.

Beena’s Curating Tips
Slate is your B2B lead shade — for architects and hospitality clients, this is the shade that closes the room conversation without a single word of explanation.
The Large at 35.5cm on a polished concrete or stone floor with a ‘Moonshine’ Sansevieria is a complete design statement — nothing else needed in that corner.
Cool tones only, without exception — silver, white, blue-green. The moment warmth enters, Slate loses its authority.
The Small in Slate with an Echeveria ‘Blue Rose’ is your most precise desk composition — minimal, architectural, considered.
For commercial photography: shoot Slate exclusively against white walls and stone or concrete surfaces. Warm backgrounds dilute the effect entirely.
