Questions About Ceramic Head Planters
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    The ceramic head vases in Sicily are known as Moor’s heads or “teste di moro”, based on a famous legend of tragic love. They come in pairs — one is the head of a man and the other of a woman. Shop a collection of antique and contemporary “teste di moro” from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.

    Yes, 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 ExpertMay 5, 2023
    Whether 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.
