Borneo Fern

There’s something special about handmade pottery. A ceramic pot is created by moulding clay into a shape and subsequently heating it at high temperature. Our ceramics are made by artisans in northern Gujarat. We use local wild clay that is as minimally processed as possible. This ancient craft combines the beauty of art, science and imagination to bring warmth integral to contemporary urban decor. One of those things that’s better in real life.

here’s something special about the perfectly-imperfect nature of ceramics. The raw touch, the way the light comes through and that it’s made from the earth all make a ceramic base more than a container.

After decades of using impersonal industrial products, clay, artisans and local manufacturing is making a comeback in interior decor.

Our ceramics are handmade by an artist in northern Gujarat using wild clay that is as minimally processed as possible. This art form is thousands of years old and allows us to go back to a simpler time. A material that is sustainable and low-polluting, clay gives us the relaxed warmth we’re craving.

It may take some moving around to find the perfect place for your fern where it's bright but not too sunny. Its leaves will turn yellow in protest if it doesn't like its place and it will visibly deteriorate.

Consistent moisture is the what you need remember when it comes to watering. That's roughly every other day in the summer, less in the monsoon and cooler months. Mist it everyday for best results.

It requires frequent check-ins and trims. Pull out dead or wilting fronds and cut back dead-ends. The more you prune, the bigger and better it grows.

Cane never goes out of fashion. It simultaenously blends in and enhances a space; feels nostalgic and yet modern. It suits every interior style from traditional to coastal to contemporary. The imperfections, rough finish and unevenness are all part of its charm. Or perhaps it just resonates more strongly in an age where mass-produced techniques look and feel dull in comparison. Its lightness and softness bring a romance that few other materials possess. Our cane bases are made by a neighbourhood canewalla in Mumbai.

It doesn't like too much light but too little light and it won't grow. It may take a little moving around to find the right spot.

Ferns like consistent moisture. A fixed watering schedule doesn't always work. You'll have to adjust your watering based on the humidity outside and the changing seasons. Fair warning!

You'll need to make the time for a once-a-week check-in to pull out brown leaves, ruffle its mane and see if new fronds are growing well.
