A low scrolled iron stand, 9 in across, that lifts one pot off the floor or the windowsill.

Lifting a pot a few inches does more than it sounds. Air moves underneath instead of damp sitting between the pot and the surface, which is what marks a floor or a sill over time.

It also gives a plant a bit of presence. A pot standing directly on the ground reads as storage; the same pot raised on an openwork stand reads as something you meant to put there.

Stand it on a level surface and check all the feet make contact.
Set a pot on top, centred, so the weight sits over the middle of the frame.
Use a saucer if the pot drains, since the top is openwork and water goes straight through.
On a hard floor, felt pads under the feet will save the surface.

Diameter: 9.05 in (23 cm)
Height: 4.72 in (12 cm)
Material: metal, with a scrolled openwork top
Colors: white, black or brown
Holds: one pot
Assembly: none

One size, three finishes. Black and brown recede; white stands out against a dark floor.

The 9.05 in top is the number to check. A pot slightly narrower than that sits securely; one much wider will overhang and become unstable.

The top is openwork, so water passes straight through. Use a saucer indoors.
Keep the pot centred and within the 9 in top.
For outdoor use, a covered spot is the safer choice.
Metal feet can mark a wooden floor. Pads solve it.

What size pot fits?

The top is 9.05 in (23 cm) across. A pot a little narrower than that sits securely; anything much wider will overhang.

Can it go outside?

It's best indoors or on a covered balcony rather than left out year-round.

How much weight will it take?

We don't list a weight rating. Centre the pot over the frame rather than off to one side.

Does it need assembling?

No, it arrives as one piece.

Why you'll love it

Air underneath. Lifting a pot off the surface stops damp sitting between the two.

Nothing to build. It arrives in one piece. Stand it down, put a pot on it, done.

Three finishes. White, black or brown, so it either disappears or becomes part of the display.

Why raising a pot matters

A pot standing flat on a hard surface traps a film of moisture underneath it that never really dries. Indoors that leaves rings on wood and dark patches on paint; outdoors it is where slugs and woodlice settle in.

Lifting the pot even a few inches lets air move under the base, and the whole problem goes away. It also helps drainage: a pot sitting in its own run-off is a pot whose roots are sitting wet.

The practical part is matching pot to stand. Check the diameter of your pot against the 9 in top before ordering, and centre it once it is on there. And keep a saucer between the pot and the openwork if you water from above, or the water simply goes through onto the floor.

A quick guide for your growing space

Heat

Pots dry out faster than garden beds in a hot spell. Check the soil before you water, and leave heat-stressed stems alone rather than repositioning them.

Humidity

Damp air suits many tropical houseplants, but airflow still matters. Leave room between a support and a wall so air can move around the stems you have just tied in.
