A Potted History…
The Terraneo potters work a few hundred meters from the ancient ruins of the palace of Agamemnon, in Mycenae, Greece; the birth place of ceramics 6,000 years ago. Historically, pot production began in the region during the time of the Trojan War. Exports of wine and oil were required to help fund Agamemnon’s war chest for the lengthy siege of Troy. A number of the original pot designs are still faithfully replicated today at Terraneo. (Do consult Homer’s Iliad or Odyssey for further clarification should you be inclined.)
The Technical Bit…
Terraneo planters come with a 10-year guarantee and are certified to be frost-resistant up to -50º Celsius. This gives the pots a unique advantage in climates with sudden shifts in temperature, where other terracotta planters deteriorate, dissolve or break in the winter.
