Alba, from the Latin for radiant light, fits this terrific terracotta pot to a tee. Measuring 27cm and 5kg in weight, it’s a sizable piece, made for display half the world away: China, echoing the tribute to the first Emperor, Qin Shi Huang. His "terracotta army" was assembled for assistance in the afterlife - but we're confident this piece can help in this life too. The handmade handsome pot comes with handles - all the better for arranging or rearranging. The off-white look means the neutral vase can look natural anywhere.

A huge handmade terracotta pot that'll be a fine fit for any room.
