Barro Negro Axolotl, Axolote, Planter Handmade in San Bartolo Coyotepec, Oaxaca

This playful planter is shaped like an axolote, Mexico’s beloved salamander. With its sculpted gills and tiny carved flowers, it has a curious charm that makes people smile. The body is rounded and smooth to the touch, and every detail is shaped by hand, giving it a one-of-a-kind feel.

It was made in San Bartolo Coyotepec, Oaxaca, where barro negro pottery is fired in sealed, oxygen-free kilns. That’s what gives the clay its deep black color and gentle shine, all without using any dyes or colorants. With a drainage hole and non-porous surface that holds moisture, it’s perfect for plants that need a little extra humidity.
