The large Burgundy is a glazed ceramic plant pot with a center drainage hole and a matching saucer, and at full size the color stops being something you have an opinion about and becomes something you have a relationship with. The simplicity that divided people at three and five inches becomes, at this scale, the entire point: no distraction, no technique to admire, just a large, confident, unapologetic form in a color that has never once tried to be liked by everyone. At this scale the absence of any trick becomes the trick, a color so sure of itself that restraint starts to look like the boldest choice in the room.

Glazed ceramic holds moisture more evenly than raw terracotta, and each large pot carries the color a little differently. Sized for a floor or a statement plant, it takes the room without asking. The people who loved it from the start are thrilled. The people who did not have had three sizes to come around.

Potting a Plant in a Minute

  1. Place a 1-inch layer of small stones or LECA pebbles at the bottom of the pot. Optional, but it helps with airflow.
  2. Add well-draining potting mix appropriate to your plant. Not garden soil. We know your grandmother used garden soil. She was wrong about this one thing.
  3. Transplant from the nursery pot, leaving about 1 inch at the top for watering, enough room to water deeply without overflow.
  4. Set the pot on the matching saucer.
  5. Water thoroughly until water runs out the drainage hole into the saucer. Empty the saucer once the plant has absorbed what it needs. This is the entire system.

Potting Tips

  1. Repot in the evening.
  2. Wait 1–2 days after watering, then repot.
  3. Buy potting mix. Not backyard dirt.
  4. Move the top layer of soil from the old pot into the new one. It's a little ecosystem.
  5. Never go more than one inch bigger.
  6. Soil line sits an inch below the rim. Leca or small rocks at the bottom for drainage.

Pot Care instructions
  1. Dishwasher-safe. Can also be hand-washed with warm soapy water and a soft cloth.
  2. Glazed pots are dipped and kiln-fired — they are sealed, durable, and not looking for trouble. No special cleaning products required.
  3. For pots with saucers empty the saucer periodically. Standing water in the saucer defeats the purpose of having a drainage hole, which is a thing we feel strongly about.
  4. Not frost-safe. Designed for indoor use and covered outdoor temperate weather use. Freezing temperatures are not recommended.

Large Minute Ceramic Pots & Saucer | 6", 7" & 8" Indoor Planter - Chive Ceramics Studio - Pots - Chive Ceramics Studio

Burgundy at Full Scale: Opinion Becomes Relationship

At full size, Burgundy graduates from opinion to relationship. The same purity that split the room at three and five inches becomes, at this scale, unmistakably the point. There is nothing to study, no layering to decode, no surface event to admire, only a large, saturated, completely self-assured form in a single color that has never made the slightest effort to be universally liked. That refusal is the whole appeal. A large pot in a difficult color asks something of a room, and Burgundy makes the ask without apology, occupying its space the way confident things do, by simply being there and declining to explain.

The people who loved it from the first three-inch encounter are vindicated. The people who walked past it have now had three sizes and presumably several years to reconsider, and many of them have. Some still have not, and Burgundy remains entirely unbothered by their holdout. Each large pot wears the color slightly differently under different light, deep and even and quietly variable. A center drainage hole and a matching saucer sit beneath all that conviction, because even a color this sure of itself still has a plant to keep alive. This is Burgundy with nothing left to prove, which, it turns out, is when it is most persuasive.

Potting a plant with Chive

  1. It's best to repot your plant in the evening. Trust us, we know.
  2. Repot 1–2 days after watering — keeps the same rhythm going and won't shock it.
  3. Potting soil is not the dirt from your backyard. Go buy good, nutrient-rich soil.
  4. The top layer of soil in your current pot should be the top layer in the new pot too. It's a little ecosystem your plant likes.
  5. Never go more than one inch bigger than your existing pot. "It'll grow into it" is not correct, and you will kill it.
  6. Keep the soil line about an inch below the top of the pot. Add some leca or small rocks to the bottom for better aeration.

The Ultimate Repotting Guide

For those who have killed a plant. Or several. Or, frankly, many.

Before you put a plant into your new pot, you have to get it out of the nursery pot — a process that ends badly more often than any gardening influencer will admit. We wrote a full guide: when to repot (early spring, and not when you're feeling impulsive in October), which soil to use, how to tell your plant is root-bound, and how to avoid the three mistakes that kill perfectly healthy plants within a week of a well-intentioned repotting.

It is the guide we wish someone had handed us twenty-five years ago. It is written by people who have personally committed most of the errors in it.

Water It Like You Mean It

The Minute Large in Burgundy drains the way it should, which only matters if the watering keeps pace. A proper can or mister makes the difference, and ours look the part on a counter.

The Chicago Botanic Garden Did Not Ask How the Glaze Was Made

Chive Studio designs pots and ceramic flowers, and the Minute line is where the glazes are layered and allowed to move, which means the studio discards more pots than it keeps, a fine principle and an inconvenient way to run a studio. The shapes are decided in the studio, tested against real plants, and revised until the proportions stop bothering us, which routinely takes longer than anyone budgeted for. We design everything we sell, license nothing to other manufacturers, and have never sold to a big-box retailer, which is the kind of decision that sounds principled until you see the schedule.

Botanical institutions keep choosing the work, which we credit to buyers who can tell at a glance whether an object is what it claims to be. the Chicago Botanic Garden carries Chive. So do the Berkshire Botanical Garden and the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden, where a layered glaze has to hold its own beside the plants it was made for. We ship to over 40 countries, and the glazed surface wipes clean and holds moisture more evenly than raw terracotta, which matters more than the studio's feelings about color.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Minute in Burgundy best suited to?

The Minute is a ceramic pot for indoor plants. It works well for pothos, snake plants, peace lilies, philodendrons, and small ferns and suits modern, boho, and minimalist rooms. As a large ceramic pot, the Minute fits a shelf, sill, or desk and pairs cleanly with the rest of the Chive pot range. This listing is the Burgundy colorway.

Is the Minute a plant pot with a drainage hole and saucer?

Yes, the Minute is a ceramic plant pot with a drainage hole and a matching saucer. The drainage hole lets excess water escape so roots are not left sitting in water, which is the most common cause of root rot indoors. Water until you see a little drain into the saucer, then empty it. For a ceramic pot with drainage, the Minute keeps watering simple.

What size plant fits the Minute large?

The Minute large is a ceramic pot that holds a nursery plant of a similar width, so match the grower pot to the opening rather than the mature size of the plant. Good choices include pothos, snake plants, peace lilies, philodendrons, and small ferns. For a large indoor plant pot, size up by about an inch when you repot so roots have room without swimming in soil.

Is the saucer included with the Minute pot?

Yes, the Minute ships with a matching ceramic saucer, so it arrives as a complete pot and saucer set. The saucer catches water that drains through and protects shelves and sills from rings and moisture. Both pieces are finished to match, which is why the Minute reads as one considered object rather than a pot with a random tray underneath.

Are ceramic plant pots good for indoor plants?

Yes, the Minute is a ceramic plant pot. Ceramic is fired hard, holds glaze color well, and does not break down with watering the way untreated materials can, which makes ceramic plant pots a reliable choice for indoor plants. The Minute is glazed to seal the surface, so it wipes clean and keeps its finish on a sill, shelf, or table.

How do I care for plants in the Minute pot?

To water the Minute, add water until a little runs into the saucer, then tip out what collects so roots are not left standing in it. Because this ceramic pot has a drainage hole, you can water thoroughly and let the excess go, which encourages even root growth. Check the top inch of soil before watering again rather than watering on a fixed schedule.

Is the Minute a good ceramic pot for snake plants?

The Minute is a good ceramic pot for snake plants. It drains freely, so the roots get water and air in the right balance. For anyone searching for a ceramic pot for snake plants, the Minute covers both looks and function. Match the nursery pot to the opening and the plant settles in without fuss.

Does the Minute work as a housewarming gift?

The Minute makes a practical gift for a plant lover because it is a finished ceramic pot that solves a real problem rather than adding clutter. It arrives as a pot and saucer set and suits most modern interiors. For a plant pot gift that gets used, the Minute is an easy choice, and it suits anyone building an indoor plant collection.
