Zhu 02 - Watering Can

Zhu Watering Can – Minimal Form, Quiet Function

I named this watering can Zhu, like the rest of the series, after the Chinese word for bamboo. It carries the same spirit: clean lines, subtle texture, and a balance between function and calm presence. Inspired by the quiet elegance of traditional Chinese ceramics and the simplicity of natural forms, Zhu is not just a tool—it’s also an object you’ll want to leave on display.

Zhu holds up to 750ml of water and is fully watertight. I’ve tested it for months to water my home plants. The pour is smooth, and when it’s not in use, it sits beautifully on a shelf, blending into a minimal or nature-inspired space.

Features:

• Holds 750ml of water
• Fully watertight – long-term tested in PLA
• Subtle fuzzy texture for a soft, matte look
• Lightweight and strong, designed for daily use
• Balanced shape that also works as decor

Perfect for:

• Watering houseplants, herbs, bonsai, or balcony gardens
• Leaving out on a shelf as a functional design object
• Pairing with other Zhu series prints for a unified look

Tips:

• Print with Bambu Studio 1.10 or newer for best fuzzy skin quality

• PLA holds water with no issues for months—PETG is even safer for long-term use
