Glass Terrarium, Large Pentagon

Clear glass and a brass frame give this glass terrarium a quiet, sculptural presence, ready to hold greenery without hiding it. Its pentagon shape brings clean geometry to succulents, air plants or a few treasured objects on a shelf or table.

How the pentagon shape frames greenery

• The angular outline gives small plants a sense of structure, like a miniature room made for leaves and texture.
• Clear glass keeps the contents visible from different angles, so the display changes gently as you move around it.
• The brass frame adds warmth beside green plants, pale stones, shells or jewellery.
• The open format makes it easy to arrange, adjust and refresh the contents without disturbing the whole piece.
• It suits slow, small-scale tending: choosing what to place inside, noticing growth, and changing the mood with the season.

Glass, brass and an open display

The terrarium is made from glass with a brass frame, shaped into a large pentagon form. The materials keep the look light rather than bulky, while the metal outline gives the piece definition against a wall, shelf or windowsill.

Brass naturally develops character with handling and age. Keep the glass clear with a soft dry cloth, and avoid abrasive cleaners that could mark the frame or panels.

What to place inside

Use it for succulents, air plants, small decorative arrangements or jewellery you like to keep visible. For planted displays, choose greenery that suits an open vessel and give it the light and care the plant itself needs.

Common questions

Can it be used for jewellery instead of plants?
Yes. It can be used as a visible organiser for jewellery or other small decorative pieces.

Is this a sealed terrarium?
No. This is an open terrarium, so it is better treated as a display vessel rather than a closed, self-sustaining ecosystem.
