Orchid Bowl Inlay – Glass, Cotton, Clear
Product description
The Kolibri Home Inlay is a round glass insert designed to accompany orchid bowls up to 25 cm in diameter. It houses a water reservoir and a set of cotton watering wicks, enabling a low-maintenance, self-watering orchid arrangement. Designed to be used with Kolibri Bouquet components, the inlay sits within a Reed Basket or Cotton Basket and includes three watering wicks to start the setup.
Crafted in pale pink-tinted glass, the inlay offers a calm, translucent surface that highlights the orchid arrangement without overpowering it. The cotton wicks are positioned to draw moisture from the reservoir to the roots, providing steady hydration while keeping the planting area visually clean and minimal. The overall form is understated and refined, aligning with Scandinavian design principles of simplicity, function and warmth.

Why this product stands out
The inlay provides a practical, elegant solution for orchids, combining a dedicated water reservoir with an unobtrusive aesthetic. By supplying moisture through the wicks, it supports healthy root moisture without submerging the roots, reducing the risk of overwatering. The soft pink glass adds warmth to minimalist interiors while preserving a clean, airy look.
How it works in the home
Place the inlay inside a Reed Basket or Cotton Basket to create a compact orchid centerpiece. The unit is ideal for a living room coffee table, a hallway console, or a dining table where a refined, botanical touch is desired. The three wicks sit below the pot and connect to the reservoir; ensure the wick tips remain submerged and monitor the water level weekly. Refill from the center of the inlay when necessary, keeping the water level below the rim to avoid direct contact with the orchid roots.
