What sizes are available for the Domani Nagori?

The Domani Nagori is available with Ø 80 cm in three heights: as a shallow bowl at 27 cm and as a planter at 39 and 60 cm. The weight ranges from 43 kg to 70 kg; the opening measures 73, 48 and 45 cm.

Can the Domani Nagori also be used indoors?

Yes, the Domani Nagori is also suitable for indoor use. Terracotta is porous and not watertight; Domani therefore recommends lining the vessel on the inside with pond liner or a watertight insert and planting in hydroculture with a water level indicator.

How is the Domani Nagori planted?

The Domani Nagori comes with a drainage hole as standard and sits on flat supports that keep it clear of the ground. Domani recommends a drainage layer of crocks, gravel or expanded clay filling a third to half of the height, topped with a root fleece and permeable soil; the root ball sits about two finger-widths below the rim.

Q: Who designed the Domani Nagori?

The Domani Nagori is a design by Studio KO. The name follows the Japanese idea of "nagori" – the lingering trace of past seasons, which is meant to remain visible in the raw surface of the vessels.

The Domani Nagori is a terracotta planter from the Nagori collection, designed by Studio KO. Each piece is handcrafted in Domani's workshop in Pécs, Hungary.

Nagori puts the earth at the center: a raw, hand-finished surface, as if the vessels were lifted directly from the ground. The shapes rise from rounded bases to flat rims; some models feature an almost smooth collar. Domani uses a kaolin-based terracotta that is fired so densely that, according to the manufacturer, it absorbs only 3 to 4% water – making the planter frost-resistant. How clay behaves outdoors is explained in our material overview.

The name follows the Japanese idea of "nagori", the lingering echo of past seasons. The earthy colors harmonize effortlessly with greenery – on terraces, in courtyards, on roof gardens, and in hotel and commercial areas.

Nagori is available in three heights at Ø 80 cm and five colors – white-beige (ivory), grey (rhino grey), anthracite (slate), ochre-brown (camel), and red (sahara red). All models have a drainage hole. Our page on Domani showcases more vessels from the brand, while the rest of our selection of planters is available from other manufacturers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Domani Nagori frost-resistant?

Yes. According to the manufacturer, Domani's densely fired terracotta absorbs only 3 to 4% water; the Domani Nagori is therefore frost-resistant and can remain outdoors year-round. It is important that water does not collect in the vessel during winter; in severe frost, Domani recommends wrapping the vessel and plant in a fleece blanket.

Can the Domani Nagori also be placed indoors?

Yes, the Domani Nagori is also suitable for indoor use. Terracotta is porous and not waterproof; Domani therefore recommends lining the inside of the vessel with pond liner or a watertight insert and placing the plant in a hydroponic system with a water level indicator.

Who designed the Domani Nagori?

The Domani Nagori was designed by Studio KO. The name follows the Japanese idea of "nagori" – the lingering echo of past seasons, which is intended to remain visible in the raw surface of the vessels.

Stability and protection

Domani planters stand on discreet spacers that lift the base slightly, which keeps the drainage hole clear and ensures air circulation.

Tips for planting outdoors

Make sure the planter sits level on its spacers and the drainage opening is clear.
Add a drainage layer of pottery shards, gravel or Hydrograins amounting to between a third and a half of the height of the planter, and then cover it with a root fleece.
Fill with a free-draining potting compost and set the plant so that the root ball sits about two finger-widths below the rim of the planter.
If desired, finish with a thin layer of bark mulch to retain surface moisture.
Water the plant thoroughly until excess water runs out through the drainage opening at the bottom of the planter. In summer, check the soil moisture more often.

Indoors

Terracotta is porous; Domani's silicone treatment slows water absorption but does not make the planter waterproof
Line the planter with pond liner or a watertight insert; set the plant in hydroculture with a water-level indicator (manufacturer's recommendation)
