Trellis Shell Planter (Medium)

Mel Campion

British artist Mel Campion has created these highly decorative plant pots exclusively for Them Outdoors. The intricate trellis design gives shape and form to the arrangement – whilst also emphasising the beautiful natural architecture of the shells themselves. Mel says “these designs are a nod to the role we as humans play by giving the natural world support and structure to grow and flourish.”

Shells and plants have a lot in common. Designed by nature and shaped by their environments, every detail of these extraordinary forms has inspired artists and designers for centuries.

Mel uses a combination of sustainably sourced whole and crushed shells and cement on a zinc base to create these planters. They are incredibly durable and the only thing that is likely to show their age is the gathering of moss on the shells over time, which in itself is a beautiful natural process.

Available in three sizes. Each shell planter is handmade in Mel’s studio and will have its own unique variations. Please enquire for bespoke options.
