Rosa is a lace pattern terracotta planter — the only piece in the Midori range where the surface motif is overtly floral, an all-over rose and mesh design pressed into the clay and hand-painted in two finishes: Burnish and Verdigris. Every other planter in the Midori range borrows from architecture, geology, or the geometry of nature. The pattern covering its upright cylindrical form is dense, intricate, all-over floral — rose motifs embedded in a lace mesh that wraps the vessel from base to rim without interruption. Pressed into terracotta and then hand-painted, the lace sits in relief: the raised threads carry the colour, the recessed depths reveal what lies beneath.
About the Rosa lace pattern terracotta planter
In Burnish, what lies beneath is warm copper-bronze — and at golden hour, the entire surface reads as hammered brass, the lace pattern dissolving into a single field of warm metallic light. In Verdigris, the copper-bronze recesses read against a deep teal-green surface — the same patina story as aged bronze left in a garden, rendered here in painstaking detail across every centimetre of the form.
The Rosa lace terracotta planter comes in four sizes. The XL at 38cm is a floor statement — wide enough for a generous plant, tall enough to hold the room. The Small at 20cm is a desk or shelf object that carries the same surface drama at a fraction of the scale. Both are equally Rosa.
Each Rosa is hand-painted. Variation in tone, lace depth, and finish across the surface is inherent to this process — it is the evidence of the hand, not a defect.
XL: 38cm dia × 32.5cm H · L: 32cm dia × 29cm H · M: 24.5cm dia × 22cm H · S: 20cm dia × 16.5cm H

Beena’s Curating Tips
Rosa is the only piece in the Midori range with an overtly romantic pattern — lean into it. A White Orchid in Rosa Burnish on a dressing table or a bedside shelf is a composition that needs no explanation and no additional styling.
Choose your finish by occasion. Burnish is for warmth, intimacy, and gifting — a wedding gift, a boutique hotel suite, a spa reception. Verdigris is for drama and depth — a statement living room corner, a covered entrance, a restaurant interior that wants texture without colour clash.
The lace pattern at golden hour is Rosa’s defining moment in both finishes — Burnish reads as hammered brass, Verdigris reads as ancient oxidised copper. If possible, place Rosa where evening light crosses it. The surface transformation is worth positioning for.
Rosa is the strongest gifting piece in the Botanica Collection — and the most occasion-specific in the entire Midori range. In the Small or Medium with a pre-planted White Orchid or Pink Anthurium, it arrives as a complete, considered gift for weddings, anniversaries, housewarmings, and corporate giving. Flag this to your gifting and B2B clients explicitly.
The XL at 38cm has the presence of a floor planter but the intimacy of the lace pattern — it works in spaces where other large planters would feel industrial or cold. Hotel suites, spa lobbies, boutique retail interiors, and dressing rooms are where Rosa XL belongs, not hotel lobbies or restaurant entrances where Areca or Hexora would read better.
Each Rosa is hand-painted — the lace depth, the copper breakthrough, and the surface tone vary piece to piece. Communicate this as a feature: customers are not buying a mass-produced object, they are buying a piece that carries the evidence of the hand that made it.
