Product Description
These plants and butterflies that comprise the Botanic Garden pattern are from the exquisitely hand-colored illustrations in the finest natural history books of the early 19th century. Reproduced with true craftsmanship, these flowers have the brilliance and life they had when first painted over 150 years ago.

This attractive canister from Portmeirion's popular Botanic Garden pattern is the perfect storage place for coffee beans, uncooked penne, or steel-cut oats. Four inches high with a capacity of 14 ounces, the canister is crafted in Portmeirion's convenient and attractive ceramicware. Whether in the refrigerator, freezer, cupboard, or countertop, the airtight lid of the canister helps extend the fresh quality of contents while keeping pests out. The canister is part of a set of four from the Botanic Garden line. Creator Susan Williams-Ellis found inspiration from illustrated herbal and botany guidebooks from the nineteenth century. The pieces are hand decorated in garden motifs, featuring diverse members of the botany family such as the crocus, honeysuckle, and snowdrop, along with old friends such as butterflies and hummingbirds. The canister is dishwasher- safe for thorough cleaning and endures oven and microwave heats up to 340 degrees F. Portmeirion Botanic Garden offers a wide variety of tableware, serveware, and accessories. --Jessica Reuling
