Designed to make it look as though the plants and wood are floating in the air, the wires and fittings are kept as inconspicuous as possible.
For easy watering, the bottom part of the pot can be removed with a bolt.
The hanging wire is made from a water-resistant, thin yet durable polyethylene fishing line. The fittings are made from accessory parts, designed to be compact and unobtrusive, while creating a beautiful, cohesive look.
Hemisphere is crafted by a domestic precision woodworking manufacturer. To showcase the natural wood grain beautifully, every detail is carefully finished by skilled artisans.
To make the body water-resistant, it is immersed in liquid resin for a set period, allowing the resin to penetrate the wood's vessels. Afterward, multiple layers of coating are applied to achieve a durable, water-resistant finish.

We designed the wires and fittings to nearly disappear, so only the plants and wood seem to float in midair.
And for easy watering, the bottom part of the pot can be removed with a bolt. On display, it appears as one seamless whole—but when it’s time to water, the bottom comes off easily to let the water drain.
