Where her hump would be, the potter has left an opening instead — deep enough to hold a small plant, so the two sit together as one piece rather than a figure with a pot glued on afterward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eNo mould is involved in making her. A potter in Udaipur builds the body from a single mass of clay, working the legs, the curve of the back, and the face by hand before going in with a tool to press the bead pattern around her neck and flank. She's left to dry slowly in open air, then fired at a high enough temperature to hold her shape for years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe cow holds a particular kind of regard in Indian households — gentleness, nourishment, the quiet work of giving without asking much back — and this piece leans into that without overstating it. Terracotta's porous walls let moisture pass through gradually, so plants that prefer to dry out between waterings tend to do well here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eBeing unglazed, natural clay, there's nothing synthetic between the plant's roots and the pot holding them — no chemical coating, no plastic liner, nothing that eventually flakes or leaches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMaterial — \u003c\/b\u003eNatural terracotta clay, hand-built, kiln-fired\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eOrigin — \u003c\/b\u003eHandcrafted by artisan potters in Udaipur, Rajasthan, India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMotif — \u003c\/b\u003eHand-carved bead-and-bell harness with horned detailing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBest for — \u003c\/b\u003eSucculents, indoor plants, console \u0026amp; entryway styling, gifting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eA quiet, horned companion for whatever you choose to grow in it.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Soul Of Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50983273758967,"sku":"SOS-073","price":119.58,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0929\/2968\/7799\/files\/pomelli_photoshoot-2_93ac05ab-e617-48a4-bda2-9601ed2b0477.jpg?v=1785934695","url":"https:\/\/www.soulofsoil.art\/en-eu\/products\/terracotta-cow-planter-handcrafted-clay-animal-plant-pot","provider":"Soul Of Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
