Alexander the Great Statue Planter

More than a statue: this 3D printed Alexander the Great is a working planter. The pot drops into the crown of his head and rests in a hollow seat, and from underneath that seat a drainage pipe is printed straight down through the bust. See the pipe in section view Every drop you pour in travels down that pipe and leaves through a discreet outlet at the back of the base, so water exits the pot instead of spreading across your table and the roots never sit in standing water. There is nothing to empty and nothing to tip out. The statue stays solid and dry to the touch, because the only hollow in it is the seat that holds the pot and the pipe that carries the water away. That quiet piece of engineering is why a plant thrives in this bust rather than merely surviving in it. Size: 181 x 183 x 308 mm. Pot opening 120 mm diameter x 94 mm deep. Printed in Melbourne in PLA.
