Local Delivery + White Glove Install
Many of our stone and terracotta vessels are substantial in scale, weight, and visual presence. To ensure each piece is delivered with the care it requires, we offer two local delivery options based on the level of service your project needs.
Standard Delivery – $150
Includes delivery of the vessel to your home or project site and placement in a reasonably accessible drop-off location.
White Glove Delivery, Install, and Placement – $350
Includes delivery, planting, soil topper, in-home placement, and final styling placement within the space for a more complete, finished presentation.
Because these vessels are often heavy and architectural in nature, site access matters. Staircases, narrow hallways, elevators, long carry distances, and other logistical constraints may require additional coordination. Where needed, our team will review access conditions in advance to ensure a smooth delivery and installation process.
These are not standard decor objects. They are statement pieces, and the delivery experience should reflect that.
Care for Stone & Terracotta Vessels
Our stone and terracotta vessels are crafted from natural materials with inherent movement, variation, and character. Subtle shifts in tone, texture, pitting, and surface detail are part of the material story and should be expected.
To preserve the integrity of your vessel, avoid prolonged standing water, protect finished surfaces, and clean gently with a soft cloth and water only. Harsh cleaners, abrasive pads, and acidic products should never be used.
Because these vessels are porous or naturally reactive to their environment, they may develop patina, tonal evolution, or mineral markings over time. That aging process is not a flaw. It is part of the lived beauty of authentic material.
For indoor installations, proper planting methods and surface protection are strongly recommended. For outdoor use, climate exposure should be considered carefully, especially in regions with freeze-thaw cycles.
Artisan-Made & Globally Sourced
These vessels are not mass-produced products. They are artisan-made forms sourced from workshops and makers around the world, selected for materiality, silhouette, and presence.
Each piece reflects the hand of the maker and the nature of the material itself. Variations in finish, shape, texture, and tone are expected and contribute to the collected, design-forward quality of the vessel.
This is what separates an artisan vessel from factory production: depth, irregularity, and a point of view. No two pieces are exactly alike, and that individuality is precisely what gives them their value.
Our collection is built for interiors and installations that require more than a standard planter. These are statement vessels with provenance, character, and lasting visual weight.
Important Note
Each vessel is handmade and inherently one of a kind. Subtle variations in size, color, surface texture, and patina are to be expected and are part of the character that gives each piece its distinct presence. These variations are not flaws, but a reflection of the artistry behind each piece and part of what ensures it never feels mass-produced.
Orders are processed with efficiency and care so your piece arrives without unnecessary delay.
From product questions to post-purchase guidance, our team provides clear, attentive support at every stage.
Each piece is chosen for its form, materiality, and visual presence, creating a more refined shopping experience that feels intentional from the start.
Backed by over 1,000 five-star reviews, Trendy Gardener has earned a reputation for elevated service, thoughtful curation, and a client experience that feels considered at every step.
