Product details
The Close Encounter is a mirror ball alien head: hand-finished glass mirror tiles all over, with piercing green crystal eyes that catch the light from every angle. Choose the planter with an open top for a trailing plant or succulent, or the statue with a closed dome. Your houseplant just got abducted. One of our disco ball planters.
Planting
The Plant Pot has an open top for a trailing plant or a succulent.
Keep the plant in a nursery pot with a saucer inside the head so water never sits against the tiles.
Made to order
Made to order and finished by hand in our Lake District studio, so the tile layout varies a little from piece to piece. The dispatch time and delivery to your country are shown near the top of this page, beside the price.
As a gift
A present for a sci-fi fan or an alien collector. It arrives as one finished piece, carefully packed; plants are not included.
Care
Put a little glass cleaner on a soft cloth to clean the tiles, and avoid abrasive cleaners.
