{"product_id":"vintage-indian-stone-plant-pot-4","title":"Vintage Indian Stone Plant Pot - Ca 1920's","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis early 20th-century carved-stone pot was originally used in South Indian and tribal communal kitchens, where thick-walled vessels like this were prized for their durability and heat retention. Hand-carved from a single block of stone, it would have served as a heavy cooking vessel for boiling rice, reducing milk, preparing porridge-style dishes (kanji), or slowly simmering lentils and grains over a clay-lined chulha hearth. Its rounded base, generous depth, and worn interior surface all reflect long, practical use in a traditional household.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday, its sculptural form, weathered surface, and reassuring weight make it a superb planter. The thick walls insulate soil, while the wide mouth offers generous planting space—perfect for sculptural indoor greens or outdoor courtyard displays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e South India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Circa 1920\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-carved stone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep bowl form; thick heat-retaining walls; rounded base; naturally weathered surface; two subtle side lugs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wear consistent with age and historic use; attractive surface patina\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e W30 x D24 x H26 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BinderKing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53551694807349,"sku":"A03551V1","price":65.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1012\/5243\/2181\/files\/Stone_Pot_For_Planter_With_Weathered_Hand_Carved_Stone_Surface_A03551V1.jpg?v=1789234318","url":"https:\/\/binderking.shop\/products\/vintage-indian-stone-plant-pot-4","provider":"BinderKing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
