Leadhead Glass
Sir Hooker House Terrarium
Product Description
While still retaining its roots in the classic style of the Victorian Wardian Case, The Sir Hooker House Terrarium features a 4-point pyramid hip roof, a clean symmetrical design, and the space to cultivate your own collection of rare plants. Sir Hooker House is a tribute to Sir William Hooker, the director of the Royal Botanic Gardens from 1841-1865. He was responsible for convincing the British government to include botanists on expeditions, and within the first 15 years of the invention of the terrarium, he imported six times more varieties of flora to Europe than in the previous century.
Lead Head Glass terrariums are handcrafted out of reclaimed glass from deconstructed homes in Detroit, Michigan. They model their terrariums as an updated version of the 19th century Wardian Case - originally used to transport exotic plants around the globe, and to provide an ideal environment to raise your own miniature garden in. Every Lead Head Glass Terrarium is made to order, and is as unique as the glass it's made from.
