This planter is made from an heirloom quality porcelain and prevented greenhouse gas emissions. The black flecks visible in the planter are pieces of biochar that were made from organic waste that was diverted from landfill.
By redirecting these organics, we're able to prevent some of the 101.7 million tons of CO2e produced from organic waste breaking down in landfill and bring awareness to the issue.
Each unique piece was designed by Sum Studio and made by Oakland based Studio Break. The clean white clay body is a strong yet elegant backdrop for the OurCarbon particles that will last for centuries. It is water tight and wipes clean with just a bit of soap and water.
