Frond
A fern's vein traced into a wall of light.
$60
Frond carries a fern-vein lattice embossed into its walls — branching midribs and pinnae pressed into a fine open weave that breaks the light into soft, leaf-shaped shadows. The lattice keeps the wall thin and airy so roots breathe and water never pools, while the embossed veins add rib-stiffness that holds the tabletop form crisp. A recessed base drains into a matching low saucer, so the planter sits clean on wood without ring stain.
- Dimensions
- H 130mm × Ø 150mm. Recessed drainage hole with a matching 165mm low saucer included.
- Plant pairing
- Maidenhair fern — its fine, fluttering fronds echo the embossed veins, and the airy lattice suits the fern's love of humidity and breathing roots.
- Materials
- Matte PLA, Recycled PETG, Wood-Fill PLA
We pressed a single maidenhair frond flat and traced every vein, then let that drawing become structure. The result reads as botanical relief but works as engineering: the veins are ribs, the gaps are airflow. Frond is a planter that wears the silhouette of the thing it holds.
