Bring the outside in with Wedgwood Burlington Pots

House Beautiful announced in 2019 that greenery is back – houseplants are here to stay! If you’re missing long summer days spent in the garden, surrounded by nature, it’s time to bring that feeling inside and embrace nature with winter houseplants. It’s not just a growing interiors trend, adding nature to the home and displaying potted plants is something more and more people are doing to reduce stress and promote well-being, thanks to a breath of nice clean oxygen provided by our flora friends.

So, to ward off those midwinter blues and ease colds, we recommend embracing a touch of green in your home environment by adding an array of houseplants. Not only can they improve comfort, coziness and provide a dash of natural color, but they also merge the inside with the great outdoors, adding life to any room during winter. We believe that horticulture and bringing nature into the home is a global phenomenon that has evolved because of this growing wellbeing interior trend. That’s why nature and culture were the richest sources of inspiration for the design of Wedgwood Burlington Pots.

What makes a Burlington Pot special is that every pot is hand-layered with different coloured Jasper to create a bespoke piece of art, a celebration of both plants and individuality. Created in a variety of sizes and a choice of two colors, whatever your style, these pots will fit into any personal space. From small city apartments, open outdoor areas, large living spaces, or kitchen windows (just to name a few) each piece is as individual as you – making your style and space truly unique.

Celebrate British craftmanship

Made in the Wedgwood factory at Barlaston, Stoke-on-Trent, Wedgwood Burlington Pots showcase true British craftsmanship and techniques first applied by Josiah Wedgwood in his early and unique Jasper experiments.

Today, it’s the pot making process that’s truly unique - from the initial design concept of using Jasperware an innovative and new way - to handcrafting each piece using traditional methods. Every pot takes between 20 and 35 minutes to make in clay, 96 hours to dry and 48 hours to fire in the kilns.

As a final touch, each pot is hand-stamped with its size, Wedgwood logo, Made in England mark and the Devonshire Ducal Coronet and Snake feature – making each pot a unique piece of art to treasure.

Potted up with beautiful plants, Wedgwood Burlington Pots are a celebration of British craftsmanship and style for today’s home and garden.

Select the perfect plant for your winter space

Plants can turn any room into a living space, and breathe life into your interiors – so finding the right plant for your home is key. When picking your houseplants, the first thing to be mindful of is plant care. Big textures and unusual plants are decorative and fun but it’s important to think about your plant's needs, the spaces in which you’ll place them (near radiators, in hot bathrooms, or drafty windows) and the light in that area.

During winter – when temperatures are low, air is dry and central heating is on full - we highly recommend sturdy plants like jade, aloe vera, spider, streptocarpus and pretty fringed ferns. If you’re looking for low maintenance winter houseplants that flower, go for peace lilies, winter-flowering orchids and fragrant white jasmines. Keep in mind watering needs during winter – some like more, some less. Simply mist your plants daily.

A pot created with unique clay and color

Globally Jasperware has long been associated with Wedgwood ever since the material was first introduced by Josiah Wedgwood in the 18th Century. Since then, Wedgwood has been especially known for using Jasper in colors of blue & white, sage green, soft pink and black & white. These became the most enduring and iconic of Wedgwood’s wares.

With a continued thirst for experimentation and exploration, Wedgwood’s team wanted to reinvent Jasper - looking at different ways of changing the look and feel of the material to suit the contemporary home.

And so, Wedgwood Burlington Pots were created.

Using Wedgwood's iconic Jasperware clay in a new way for a contemporary look, the pots are a reimagination of layering blue & white and black & white Jasper to form a unique marbling effect and organic texture that’s perfectly unpolished.

Mix and match trend rules

To up your plant game and update your look with this season’s greenery trend, why not mix and match a combination of plant sizes and colors within the home environment.

A great way to achieve this look is by combining large and small pot sizes in a range of colors and patterns, using different textural plants (from our previous guide to winter plants) and investing in accessories like plant stands to create height and interest in any room.

You can even style Wedgwood Burlington Pots with your own pots for a truly individual style. Here are our rules when mixing and matching.

Rule 1 | As you’re arranging planters always follow the odd number rule, so group them in threes or fives.

Rule 2 | If you’re using more than one pot in a space, select different textures and types of foliage to create a unique look.

Rule 3 | Real or fake it doesn’t matter. Don’t be afraid to mix dainty fake succulents with real flowers to stay on trend.

Rule 4 | When in doubt, add another plant. It’s good for your well-being
