Questions About Table With Planter
- What are Versailles planters?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Versailles planters are square-shaped containers used as planters for ornamental trees and plants. Traditional designs feature ball finials and ring hardware on each corner and paneled stepped feet below. André Le Nôtre designed them in the 1600s for growing Louis XIV's orange topiary trees at Versailles. Find a collection of Versailles planters on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022What a hanging planter is called depends on its design. Ones made out of woven materials or metal designed to resemble weaving are hanging baskets, while planters formed out of ceramic are sometimes referred to as hanging jardinières. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of antique and vintage hanging planters.
- Can I grow bamboo in planters?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes, you can grow bamboo in planters. However, there are specific qualifications that make some planters better than others for growing bamboo. Ideally a wooden planter that provides added insulation and drainage is used for optimal bamboo growth. Browse a range of planters on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021The best plant for shallow planters is vegetables. Because vegetables such as lettuce and onions do not have deep roots, they grow well in several inches of topsoil.
- What is a cast stone planter?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A cast stone planter is a vessel used as a growing environment for flowers, succulents and other plants. They come in a variety of sizes and shapes. The term cast stone refers to the material used to produce the planters. It is a mix of fiber clay, magnesium and concrete finished to resemble carved stone. You'll find a wide variety of antique and vintage planters on 1stDibs.
- Are concrete planters good?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023Whether concrete planters are good is largely a matter of personal opinion. However, many people choose concrete for planters because of its durability and appearance. Find a collection of concrete planters on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 17, 2023Yes, ceramic planters can be good for plants, especially if they feature drainage holes that allow excess water to run out. However, some ceramic glazes and finishes may contain chemicals that shouldn't come in contact with edible plants. Using a vessel designed specifically for use as a planter will typically allow you to avoid these substances. On 1stDibs, find a variety of ceramic planters.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 17, 2023Yes, you can generally use cast iron as a planter because the material is durable and sturdy. However, you may need to drill drainage holes in a cast iron piece that wasn't intended to function as a planter to allow excess water to exit the vessel. On 1stDibs, find a selection of cast iron planters.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023Whether ceramic planters are good for outside depends on their design. While ceramic is a weather-resistant material, some paints and glazes may not be able to withstand the effects of sunlight, moisture and extreme temperatures. As a result, you should only place ceramic planters intended for outdoor use outside your home. On 1stDibs, find a range of outdoor ceramic planters.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes, concrete planters do absorb water. Concrete is porous and will absorb moisture from its environment, which will cause moss to grow on the outside of the planter. You’ll find a variety of concrete planters from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021If your planter boxes aren't made of a very porous material, you should add drainage holes to avoid accidentally drowning your plants or flowers. However, if the material is porous, the water will naturally pass through.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021Because proper drainage is essential to a healthy plant, whether the plan is indoors or outdoors, drainage holes are a necessity. This prevents root rot, fungus, and bacteria from forming in the plant.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023The main difference between a bistro table and a pub table is the size. A bistro table is usually around 28 to 36 inches tall, so you can sit at it with a standard dining chair. Often, people pair bistro chairs with bistro tables. A pub table is taller at around 40 to 44 inches and requires a pub-height chair or stool for comfortable seating. Find a variety of pub and bistro tables on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 19, 2021The difference between a billiard table and a pool table is primarily the size. The basic dimensions of a billiard table are usually 10’ by 5’, whereas a pool table is a relatively smaller structure, as they’re usually 3.5’ by 7’. An additional way that these tables differ from each other is the absence of pockets on the billiard table. Shop a range of billiard and pool tables on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 17, 2023The main difference between a drawing table and a drafting table is adjustability. Typically, drawing table writing surfaces are stationary, while most drafting tables can be tilted and moved up and down. However, some people use the terms drawing and drafting table interchangeably to describe any table with a tilted writing surface. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of drafting tables.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022While both pieces are relatively new to the furniture world, the main difference between them are their shapes. A cocktail table is generally square or rectangular in shape, while a coffee table tends to be oval or circular in shape. You can shop a collection of furniture from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 22, 2019
The difference between a sofa table and a coffee table is that a sofa table is always behind the sofa and a coffee table is in front of it. Additionally, a sofa table is the same height as the sofa and a coffee table is much shorter.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023There are two differences between end tables and side tables: function and size. Typically, end tables go beside a chair or at opposite ends of a sofa and have smaller tabletops, while side tables go toward the sides of seating areas or against walls and feature a larger surface area. However, many people use the words side and end tables interchangeably, so these differences may not always apply. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of end and side tables.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2024Yes, end tables are generally taller than coffee tables.
The term “end table” is frequently used interchangeably with “coffee table,” and while these two furnishings have much in common, each table type offers its own distinctive benefits in your space.
Your end table is likely going to stand as tall as the arms of your sofa, and its depth will match the seating. These attributes allow for tucking the table neatly at the end of your sofa in order to provide an elevated surface between your seating and the wall. End tables are accent pieces — they’re a close cousin to side tables, but side tables, not unlike the show-stealing low-profile coffee table, are intended to be positioned prominently and have more to do with the flow and design of a room than an end table, which does a great job but does it out of the way of everything else.
Find all kinds of antique and vintage tables on 1stDibs. - What is a gateleg table?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 29, 2020
First introduced in 16th century-England, a gateleg table is a popular kind of table that allowed for intimate dining. The tabletop of the gateleg table, which was initially round or oval versus the long tables and formal seating arrangements that preceded it, had a section that was fixed in place, while one or two sections of the surface were equipped with hinges. By design, a gateleg table could be extended so that more space could be allocated for work or for dining if needed. These hinged sections could be folded back into place on top of the fixed section or could easily be dropped down to hang vertically on their hinges when they weren’t in use. This function, which allowed the table’s drop leaves that weren’t in use to be pushed up against a wall, saved space in small homes because the table could be tucked away. Pivoted legs under the table — which formed a gate as they were joined at their tops and bottoms by crosspieces — supported the hinged sections.
