Description
Newly made, and looking as though it has been salvaged from the sea — the Stew Pot sits at the very top of its class. And before we go any further, a gentle correction: the name is a little misleading. This is definitely not a stove-sized pot. The name may be modest; the pot most certainly is not.
It carries the full Atlantis character. Frost resistant and built for years of outdoor life, it is also very suitable for flowing water features, where its generous scale and weathered surface work magnificently. The crusty glaze ranges from whitish to warm toasted shades, with occasional hints of turquoise breaking through — a depth and provenance that tells the sea’s story in every mark. Being hand-made, dimensions are approximate and no two pieces are alike.
Monumental in scale, weathered in character, and entirely its own — the Stew Pot is a statement piece in the truest sense.

What makes this product special
The scale alone sets the Stew Pot apart — at 95cm across and 70cm high, it is a pot that commands the space it occupies and carries the whole Atlantis story at its most monumental. The weathered, crusty glaze in its whitish, toasted, and turquoise tones gives it the depth of something raised from the sea, and its generous proportions make it an extraordinary vessel for flowing water, where the surface and the sound work together in a way nothing smaller can replicate. As with all Atlantis pieces, it is hand-made and entirely individual — and in Ireland, it is only available through Caragh Nurseries.
Caragh’s Garden Notebook
A pot of this scale is not an accessory to a planting scheme — it is the point around which the scheme is arranged. Give it a position worthy of its size: a generous corner of a terrace, an entrance approach, or the natural focal point of a courtyard, where its monumental form can be properly seen. At 95cm by 70cm, it will carry the largest plants you can offer it — a specimen tree, a tall architectural shrub, a dramatic phormium or cordyline — or stand empty where its scale and texture speak entirely for themselves. If you choose to use it for a water feature, the crusty, sea-touched surface and the sound of flowing water work together in a way that needs nothing else. Unwrap carefully and allow any slight shedding to settle; the glaze is robust, and the frost resistance means it lives outdoors all year. And remember — as one of the Atlantis family, it is exclusively available in Ireland through Caragh Nurseries, so the piece you choose is as individual as the garden it will anchor.
