If it arrives damaged
Inspect the shipment before you sign. If it arrives visibly damaged or not intact, you may refuse it. If you accept it, note the damage on the bill of lading or delivery receipt before signing — to the boxes, the planter, or the packing material. You are entitled to open each box and inspect the goods; if the driver will not wait, write on the paperwork that you could not check for concealed damage. Report it to us in writing within 2 business days of delivery at customerservice@sereneyards.com, with photos of the damage, the cartons and the packing material, and keep all packaging until the claim is resolved. Damage noted at delivery and reported this way is covered — contact us and we'll make it right, either by replacing the planter or refunding you. Damage not noted at the time of delivery is much harder to resolve, because the carrier claim depends on that record. Full details are in our Shipping Policy.

Rio Grande Cylinder Planter - 18"D × 20"H / Matte Bright White is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
The Rio Grande does not taper. The wall runs vertically from base to rim, so the diameter at the floor is the diameter at the top, and the shape has no direction to it at all.
That is what makes it a good planter to buy several of. A tapered pot has a front and a best angle, and a row of them reads as a collection. A cylinder presents the same profile from everywhere, so four down a path or a pair either side of an entrance read as rhythm rather than as objects arranged. The larger size is exactly as wide as it is tall, which removes the last bit of visual direction.
The straight wall pays off inside too. The opening is close to ninety percent of the outside diameter at every size, so a seventeen-inch nursery pot drops into a twenty-two-inch body, a twenty-four-inch into the thirty, and a root ball has the same room at the bottom as at the top. Three sizes. The eighteen and twenty-two are light enough for one person to move empty and ship by standard ground carrier; the thirty is a freight item and a considered placement. Non-porous, so it does not take up the water that expands on freezing, and hand-finished to order in the color you choose.
Due to the handmade nature of our products, weights and dimensions may vary slightly.
Grounded and quiet, wherever it lands.
Every piece we carry is chosen to last, indoors or out, and look considered for years, not seasons.
Non-porous fiberglass with a UV-resistant finish: it does not absorb the water that expands on freezing, so it holds its shape through winter and its color through summer.
Vertical walls hold a single diameter from base to rim, so it reads as a grounded cylinder rather than a tapered pot, and sits calmly in a row.
Each Rio Grande is hand-finished in your chosen shade, so the color is specified to the space rather than chosen from what is in stock. The finish is an automotive-grade, UV-resistant paint system.
Every planter is finished to order in the color you choose, then shipped to you.
Twenty standard finishes, hand-finished to order in the color you choose. Custom colors are available on request. On-screen color is a guide and can vary slightly from the finished paint.
