Knurl
A machinist's grip, holding one slow jade.
$34
Knurl wraps its full wall in a diamond-knurled texture — the crosshatched grip of a tool handle, printed as thousands of raised pyramids that throw a fine grain of shadow across the surface. The pattern is grip you can feel: it seats firmly in the hand and never slides on a desk. Inside, a straight cylindrical cavity gives a jade's thick roots a deep column to anchor in, draining through a center hole into a low knurled saucer that nests flush beneath the base.
- Dimensions
- H 130mm × Ø 110mm · center bottom drainage hole · nesting knurled saucer included
- Plant pairing
- Sized for a single jade plant; the deep cylindrical cavity gives its heavy stem and roots a stable column, and the weighty knurled wall keeps a top-heavy jade from tipping as it thickens.
- Materials
- Matte PLA, Recycled PETG, Stone-Fill PLA
We pulled Knurl straight off a lathe handle, mapping the standard diamond knurl onto a planter wall. The texture isn't decoration alone — each tiny pyramid prints as a self-supporting peak, so the whole surface lays down clean and the layer lines disappear into the pattern. The result is a small object that reads machined, not printed: cold geometry warmed by whatever you grow in it.
