Soma is the Greek word for “body” and Laurie Wiid van Heerden’s design of the Soma is inspired by the body of a tree. The trunk-like shape carries leaves towards the sky raising them upwards and above other plants. The Soma planters, some of which are substantial in size, do the same and lift beautiful plants via a curvaceous tree trunk likeness which could include timber as part of the tree's body.
Indigenus, founded in 2014, is the brainchild of Cape Town local, Peter van der Post. At the beginning of his career, whilst working in roto-moulding, Peter noticed a lack of high design planters in the market and the vision to produce the most beautiful, original, and desirable planters began to grow. Over the past 8 years, the Indigenus team has collaborated with South Africa’s top designers to create planters that are art pieces in their own right. 2022 has seen exciting collaborations further afield with internationally renowned designers and collaborators.
In line with our sustainability and quality luxury objectives, we are constantly striving to make planters for life and not just for a few seasons. It has taken years of refinement, many valuable lessons learned and, ultimately, setting up our world-class factory for in-house manufacturing to be able to ensure that the planters are of the highest quality. All materials are sustainably sourced and the planters are made by hand. It is this craftsmanship that puts Indigenus in a league of its own.
Each range of planters is unique and illustrates the impact that beautiful sculptural planters have on architecture and landscapes. The planters' close connection to the earth is expressed through a stable and grounded design, made with beautiful natural materials and evoking an underlying story of our relationship with the natural world.
Indigenus is focused on collaboration with the world’s top designers and artists. We are committed to constant refinement and a willingness to be courageous, curious, and experimental with natural materials and new designs. We have built solid distributor networks and relationships that we are committed to maintaining and growing globally. We are proud of our roots as an African luxury brand with a global footprint.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.

Small D Shape Carved Stone Weathered Sandstone Planter Bonsai Pot
Located in Llanbrynmair, GB
Discover the timeless beauty of this antique carved stone planter. An early piece, circa 1900, the piece showcases the rich, natural patina that develops over a lifetime.
The gentle curved D-shape and irregular surface create a striking, sculptural silhouette that complements both modern and traditional decor. The natural stone has developed a beautiful texture and natural lichen over time, adding to its raw, earthy elegance.
The D-shaped design makes it perfect to put against a wall or as a standalone piece, ample room to display your favourite plants, succulents, or fresh herbs. Whether placed indoors or out, this planter adds a zen-inspired, nature-infused accent with its unique character and charm.
Durable enough for outdoor use, or if preferred to use inside, this antique planter brings a touch of the outdoors in. The planter appears to have a small drainage hole, if using indoors, care sound be taken to ensure no leakage or staining from the planter.
