101 Copenhagen Urchin Plant Pot

The Urchin Plant Pot in Big by 101 Copenhagen is a bold reinvention of tradition, inspired by the quiet elegance of the sea urchin. More than a functional planter, this sculptural piece reflects nature's gentle wisdom and brings artistic presence to any interior or outdoor space.

Designed by Kristian Sofus Hansen and Tommy Hyldahl, the Urchin features an oval vessel that floats gracefully above three sculptural legs, creating the impression of a creature poised between land and sea. These bold, grounding forms cradle the vessel while allowing the open space beneath to encourage root breathing and growth. The design celebrates the delicate balance between strength and fragility, honoring life unfolding in the embrace of earth, water, and air.

Crafted from hand-painted fiber concrete in a rich coffee tone, each pot is entirely unique, with subtle variations in tone and texture created through the hand-painting process. The deep, warm dark brown evokes the richness of earth and roasted beans, lending both warmth and depth to contemporary interiors. The Big size measures 17 cm in length and width, with a height of 12.5 cm, making it ideal for substantial plantings.

Thoughtfully designed with a small drainage hole at the base and a matching saucer, the Urchin ensures optimal water flow and air circulation. The fiber concrete is suitable for outdoor use and frostproof to minus 20 degrees. With attentive care and protection during winter months, this hand-painted pot will maintain its depth and character for years to come.
