Before flowerpot production became an industry in Sweden around the turn of the century 1900, there were a number of potters who made flowerpots, among other things. Typical of their handmade pots is that you can see the imprints of the potter’s hands in the ware. The hand-turning process produces low ridges on the surface that are visible both inside and out.

A hand-turned pot is not as rigid as a machine pot, it is more personal and has more life and variety. A detail that also reveals the real craftsmanship is the soft, rounded edge at the top. It can certainly be made by machine, but it will never be as soft and individual as on a hand-turned pot.

Gysinge’s small lion pots also have two lion mascots on the chest, a common decoration in the early 19th century.

Hand-turned pots and dishes with classic glazes. Fired in earthenware temperature which can cause cracking in the glaze over time. Glaze: copper oxide or tin oxide. Hole in the bottom for water drainage. Diameter pot and saucer about 16 centimeters, height about 15 centimeters.

TIP! As the pots are made of clay, they are not completely watertight. Place the pot on paws or similar to avoid moisture under the saucer. We do not recommend planting directly in the pot.

MATERIAL Made of solid brass or in nickel-plated version. Polished shiny surface, but not lacquered. The brass darkens over time if you do not polish it.

MOUNTING The wall brackets have sturdy iron screws (3.5 mm) that are screwed (carefully!) into the wall. The hooks and brackets are then screwed onto the pole. Last of all, you tighten the screws that prevent the bar from rolling.

TIP! The bar can be shortened by sawing it off. It can also be connected to another pole if you want a longer version. In this case, a wall bracket should be placed over the joint.
