{"product_id":"wooden-house-plants-large-pansy-1","title":"Wooden House Plants - Large Pansy","description":"\u003cp\u003eA leafy houseplant that never needs watering: a flat, cut-out piece of mango wood printed with broad green leaves, each one streaked cream and lime, rising from a terracotta-coloured pot. It gives a bookshelf, mantelpiece or window ledge the lift of a living plant, without the care that comes with one.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhat you'll notice\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe leaves are painted in layered greens, from deep bottle green at the veins to pale cream at the edges, so the foliage looks lit from within.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eA glossy enamel surface catches window light and makes the colour look wet and fresh, like leaves just after watering.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe outline follows the shape of the plant itself, scalloped around the leaf tips, so it reads as a silhouette rather than a flat panel.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe thick wooden edge shows the natural grain and a warm honey tone, a soft contrast to the bright print on the front.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe pot at the base is printed in warm clay tones with a painted band, and the flat foot lets the piece stand upright by itself.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eMango wood and enamel, made in India\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe piece is made in India from mango wood, a dense, fine-grained hardwood with a warm golden colour. The face is finished in glossy enamel. Because the wood is natural, the grain and tone along the edges will differ a little from one piece to the next, so yours will be slightly its own. The contrast between the smooth gloss on the front and the raw wood around the sides is much of its charm.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eStyling and care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt sits well among books, beside a lamp, or on a windowsill, where daylight brings out the greens. Because it is flat-fronted, it works best facing the room, against a plain wall or the back of a shelf. Pair it with real trailing plants for a mix of living and painted foliage, or group it with other pieces in the same collection for a small indoor jungle. To clean, wipe the enamel with a soft, dry or barely damp cloth, and keep the wood away from standing water.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eThe pull of a leafy corner\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePainted and printed foliage has long been a way to bring the garden indoors, from botanical plates on Victorian walls to the large-leaved plants that have returned to modern homes. This piece belongs in that tradition. It offers the look of a leafy corner in places a real plant may struggle: a dim shelf, a dry radiator ledge, a room with little light.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eCommon questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it stand up on its own?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes. The pot forms a flat base, so it stands upright on a shelf, mantelpiece or ledge without a stand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the colours fade?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nLike any printed piece, it keeps its colour best out of constant, strong direct sun, so a bright spot with some shade will serve it well over the years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs every piece identical?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe print is the same, but the mango wood is a natural material, so the grain and edge colour vary a little from piece to piece.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SHAMTAM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67941982175546,"sku":"WHP-06","price":19.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0756\/8307\/0266\/files\/wooden-house-plants-large-pansy-1-cover.png?v=1794144884","url":"https:\/\/shamtam.com\/products\/wooden-house-plants-large-pansy-1","provider":"SHAMTAM","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
