Bring a little mid-century charm to your shelf or windowsill with this glossy vintage green ceramic planter. The sculptural silhouette—ribbed sides, a scalloped rim, raised floral/leaf relief, and a pedestal base with scroll feet—makes it feel like décor even before you add a plant.
Sized just right for succulents, small houseplants, or a simple tabletop centerpiece, this piece adds that classic MCM pop of deep green that looks especially good with warm woods, brass accents, and bright, library-style interiors.
