"When I first arrived in Australia I was fascinated by the diversity of plants that exist here. Coming from tropical Northern Thailand it was like nothing I had ever seen before. After almost 10 years I am still just as captivated and fascinated as that first day"
Landare was launched in early 2019 by Landscape designers Tim Chaichana and Grant Boyle with the intent to create large-scale planters for commercial and residential applications.
Landare pots are designed in Australia and crafted in Thailand from a mix of clay, ash and quartz and then cooked in a wood-fired kiln for 8 hours. Their location in the kiln effects the glaze colour, resulting in pots that are totally unique and one of a kind. This technique has been used in Northern Thailand for centuries.
