Terrarium, Large on Natural Tung Wood

Clear glass and warm natural tung wood make this terrarium feel like a small pause in the room. It is a large glass terrarium for building a miniature plant display, with a rounded vessel that lets greenery, moss, stones or sculptural stems take the focus. The wood base brings a soft, grounded contrast to the clean transparency above it.

Glass, wood and a little living theatre

• The rounded glass form catches light gently, so the contents become part of the room rather than hidden inside a heavy frame.
• The natural wood base adds visible grain and warmth, giving planted arrangements a calm, earthy foundation.
• The open top keeps the design simple and accessible, suited to slow arranging and occasional tending.
• Use it for a miniature landscape, a mossy centrepiece, or a pared-back botanical display with negative space around each element.
• Its generous presence suits a dining table, shelf, desk or quiet corner where you want greenery without visual clutter.

A rounded vessel on natural tung wood

The terrarium is made from glass and wood, with the glass sitting into a broad natural tung wood base. The finish is simple and unadorned: clear walls above, visible wood grain below, and enough softness in the shape to keep the whole piece feeling calm rather than architectural.

How to fill and place it

Build the display slowly, placing heavier decorative layers first and delicate greenery last. Keep it where the glass can catch daylight, but choose a position that suits the plants you add.

Wipe the glass with a soft cloth when needed and keep the wooden base away from standing water. As with any glass piece, move it with care and lift from the base rather than the rim.

A thoughtful gift for plant-minded homes

Is it a sealed terrarium?
No. The photo shows an open glass top, so it is best treated as an open display vessel rather than a sealed system.

Can I use it with soil and living plants?
Yes, it can be used to create a planted display. Choose plants and care methods that suit an open glass vessel.
