MacKenzie-Childs Flower Market Squashed Pot - White

The Flower Market Squashed Pot is the shape that breaks the floral canister line — wide and low rather than tall and cylindrical, 5" across and only 2.75" tall before you add the lid. It holds 20 ounces in a footprint that suits a countertop ledge, a kitchen tray, or the center of a table setting. The white-glazed body is hand-decorated with the same fanciful botanical transfers as the full Flower Market canister range, topped with a clear glass knob — the lush, layered florals that look like a summer garden pressed into enamel.

The wide mouth makes it easier to fill and access than the taller canisters. MacKenzie-Childs describes it as a piece that works equally well as a countertop container or a lidded bowl for stews and chowders. The Squashed Pot is the piece that guests ask about — the unexpected silhouette in the same beloved pattern.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the Flower Market Squashed Pot different from the other Flower Market canisters?
The silhouette: wide and low at 5" dia. and 2.75" tall (5.5" with lid), versus the tall cylindrical canisters. The wide mouth is easier to fill and access, and it doubles as a lidded serving bowl for stews or chowders.

Does it have a silicone seal like the other canisters?
The Squashed Pot uses a glass knob finial without the silicone seal found in the taller canisters. It closes snugly but is best suited for items that don't require an airtight seal.

Can it be used for food?
Yes — the enamel construction exceeds federal food safety standards and California Prop 65. It works as a lidded bowl as well as a dry storage container.

Does the Flower Market Squashed Pot match the check pattern Squashed Pots?
Same 5" x 2.75" (5.5" with lid), 20 oz dimensions across all Squashed Pot patterns. The Flower Market version has a glass knob finial vs the Courtly Check's brass bobeche and faux cinnabar bead.
