Each gingko leaf carving on the Gingko Leaf Planter by Burley Clay Products Company is unique. This clay planter comes in a choice of colors and it is designed by renowned artist Pam Ballard. It is ideal in any garden.
Burley Clay encourages successful gardening by including a free garden card designed and illustrated by Pam Ballard with each of the Pam Ballard Collection products. Each card is based on the theme of the birdbath it accompanies, and includes a complete garden layout and plant list, using the purchased pieces as a focal point. Also included are container garden planting suggestions for the matching planter.
The Burley Clay Products Company started producing large stoneware crocks and jugs in 1923. In 1933, the company switched focus to the production of birdbaths and garden pottery. The products are made in the U.S.A. and are manufactured using a unique blend of the finest clay from southeastern Ohio mines. This area is world-famous for its stoneware clay, and Burley Clay mixes produce the strongest, most attractive stoneware in the world. In 2003, Burley Clay re-designed its garden products. The birdbaths and larger products are made by the rarely used method of jiggering. It takes an artisan many years to learn how to do this and the knowledge is usually passed down through families.
