Newman House Studio Buddha Face Planter - Faux-Stone Head Pot, Antique Gray, 8.25" with Drainage & Inner Pot

This Newman House Studio Buddha face flower pot is an 8.25-inch faux-stone head planter with a drainage hole and removable stopper, designed for succulents, cacti, air plants or decorative stems indoors or outdoors.

Handsomely sculpted to resemble weathered stone with a subtle brown antique patina, this Buddha head planter brings a tranquil, farmhouse-inspired accent to shelves, patios, desktops, and entryways. The piece includes a snug plastic inner pot and a bottom drainage hole with a rubber stopper, so you can switch between moisture-retaining display and healthy drainage depending on the plant. Its compact but generous proportions (approximately 6.25" x 6.5" x 8.25") make it a versatile decorative pot for small to medium houseplants or artificial arrangements.

How does the drainage hole and removable stopper help my plants?

Built-in drainage prevents water from pooling at the pot base, which helps reduce root rot risk for moisture-sensitive plants like succulents and cacti. When you need a bit more moisture retention for tropical seedlings or decorative artificial plants, the rubber stopper seals the hole. The included plastic inner pot makes watering and repotting easier without disturbing the outer sculpted shell.

• Drainage hole with removable rubber stopper for flexible watering
• Plastic inner pot for simple lift-out planting and cleaning
• Suitable for live plants that require good drainage, or for decorative use sealed

What plants suit this Buddha head planter best?

Small to medium succulents, haworthias, echeverias, small cacti, air plants, and trailing ivies look particularly good in the recessed crown. Dried flowers and faux stems are also excellent choices when you want a maintenance-free display. If you prefer a full look, a cluster of mixed succulents creates a balanced, lush top that complements the stone-like finish.

• Succulents and small cacti for low-water care and sculptural contrast
• Air plants or stringing plants for an airy, meditative display
• Artificial or dried blooms when you want lasting decor without watering

Will this planter hold up outdoors and how does the finish age?

The faux-stone gray finish with brown antique patina is designed to mimic natural weathering while remaining lightweight and durable for covered porch or patio use. The material resists cracking like brittle natural stone can and is less prone to chips. For prolonged exposure to rain and sunlight, place it in a sheltered spot to preserve the finish and prevent excessive fading over time.

• Stone-like textured gray surface with intentional antique patina
• Lightweight, durable construction suited to indoor and sheltered outdoor spots
• Best kept out of constant full sun or waterlogged locations for long life

Its sculptural profile functions as both plant container and tabletop art, making it a focal point in modern farmhouse, bohemian, or minimalist interior schemes. Pair it with a small plant stand or cluster multiple planters for a curated look.

• Dimensions: roughly 6.25" x 6.5" x 8.25" — fits standard shelving and tabletops
