Aloe Vera Appraisal

Aloe Vera Plant in Ceramic Leaf-Embellished Pot with Saucer

This item consists of a small, live Aloe Vera plant potted in a decorative ceramic pot with a matching saucer. The Aloe Vera plant displays several slender, succulent green leaves, typical of a young or smaller specimen, with one leaf notably longer and arching upwards. The ceramic pot is predominantly off-white or cream-colored with a smooth, glossy glaze. Its design features a green rim around the top opening and a green band at the base, where it narrows into a footed stand. The most distinguishing characteristic of the pot is the raised, three-dimensional leaf embellishments, rendered in a vibrant green, applied to the exterior. At least two such leaves are visible, appearing as a stylized, deeply veined foliage design. The pot sits on a separate, shallow ceramic saucer which is also light-colored, possibly off-white, and appears to have a slightly iridescent or reflective finish, suggesting a glossy glaze. There are no visible chips, cracks, or significant damage to the pot or saucer. The plant appears healthy, though the potting soil level is a bit low. The style of the pot, with its embossed natural motifs and bright glazing, suggests a decorative home accent, possibly from the mid to late 20th century or a modern reproduction. The craftsmanship appears to be factory-made, with consistent glazing and mold-formed embellishments. The overall condition suggests careful handling and display.
