Some watering cans are made to be hidden in the shed; this one is made to be left out on display. The Sophie Conran Indoor Watering Can in grey is a genuinely beautiful object — modern, minimal, and quietly confident — finished with a brass-toned Sophie Conran seal, and the sort of thing you'll happily leave sitting on a shelf or plant stand between waterings, because it's far too handsome to put away. Where the buttermilk version leans warm and country, the grey is the cooler, more contemporary choice: sleek, understated, and perfectly at home in a modern interior.

It comes from a lovely pairing: designed by Sophie Conran, of the celebrated British design family, in collaboration with Burgon & Ball, the Sheffield toolmaker who've been making garden tools since 1730. The result is exactly what that pedigree promises — clean, considered design married to genuinely thoughtful function. Supplied to us through our partners at AllotMate, who curate proper, well-made tools and equipment for gardeners who'd rather buy once.

For all its good looks, it's a properly capable little can. The 1.7-litre capacity is just right for a collection of houseplants — enough to do the rounds without constant refilling, light enough to handle easily. The slender, precise spout is the real star: it delivers water exactly where it's needed, right at the root zone, which makes it ideal for densely planted pots, terrariums, and delicate arrangements where a clumsy spout would splash the leaves or soak the shelf. And the ergonomic handle sits naturally in the hand and tips smoothly as you pour, giving you proper control over the flow.

What makes it special

  • Designed by Sophie Conran — clean, timeless, understated design from one of Britain's best-loved designers
  • Timeless grey finish — modern and minimal, with a quiet presence on any shelf or plant stand; the contemporary counterpart to the warmer buttermilk
  • Slender precision spout — delivers water exactly where it's needed, perfect for densely planted pots and delicate plants
  • 1.7-litre capacity — the right size for a houseplant collection: generous but easy to handle
  • Ergonomic handle — balanced and comfortable, for a smooth, controlled pour
  • Brass-toned Sophie Conran seal — a refined finishing touch on the top surface
  • Powder-coated galvanised steel — durable, rust-resistant, and built to last for years

Where it shines

This is a can made for the indoor gardener. Its size and precision suit the whole range of houseplant care — topping up a windowsill of herbs, watering a collection of foliage plants without splashing the leaves, reaching into a densely planted bowl, or tending a terrarium where accuracy really matters. The narrow spout means no overflow, no mess, and no drowning the crown of a fern; just water, exactly where you want it. And because it's as handsome as it is useful, it earns its place on open display rather than under the sink — the cool grey finish in particular suits a modern, pared-back interior.

As a gift

A Sophie Conran can is one of those gifts that feels considered and a little bit special — practical, beautiful, and design-led without being fussy. Particularly lovely for:

  • The houseplant lover — anyone with a windowsill, shelf, or whole room of indoor plants
  • A new home or flat — a house-warming gift that looks wonderful from day one, especially in a modern interior
  • The design-conscious gardener — someone who appreciates a beautiful object as much as a useful one
  • Mother's Day, birthdays, Christmas — a gift with real presence at a sensible price
  • Pair it with a houseplant or a gift card for a complete, thoughtful present

Looking after it

  • Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth as needed; dry afterwards to keep the finish looking its best
  • Empty after use rather than leaving it standing full for long periods
  • Avoid abrasive cleaners, which can mark the powder-coated surface
  • Keep it on display — it's designed to be seen, and a quick wipe keeps it looking smart on the shelf

About Sophie Conran and Burgon & Ball

Sophie Conran is a designer, writer, and member of one of Britain's most influential design families, known for pieces that combine everyday usefulness with quiet, timeless style. Her collaboration with Burgon & Ball — Sheffield toolmakers since 1730 — brings that sensibility to a range of beautifully made garden and home pieces. We're proud to stock the collection, of which this little can is one of the most charming members.

A small thought: houseplants ask for very little — a bit of light, the right spot, and a regular drink — and there's a real pleasure in doing that small, steady job with a tool that's a joy to pick up. A beautiful can doesn't make the plants grow any better, but it does make the watering a nicer ritual. And the nicer the ritual, the more reliably it gets done.

Lightweight, Effective—A Skincare Staple
Size: Gel Moisturizer
I’ve been using the Curology Gel Face Moisturizer every morning and evening and it’s quickly become a go‑to in my routine. The gel texture feels light and cool, absorbs almost instantly, and the clear, scent‑free finish leaves my skin smooth, not sticky or shiny. After a few weeks of use, my combination/acne‑prone skin looks calmer, with less redness and breakouts. If you’re looking for a daily moisturizer that works under makeup and plays nicely with blemish‑prone skin, this one’s a winner.

Has helped my skin and is really nice!
Size: Gel Moisturizer, Size: Gel Moisturizer
I’ve been using the gel, moisturizer, and gentle cleanser together for a little while now, and overall I’m really happy with the set. The cleanser is super gentle and doesn’t leave my skin feeling tight or dry, which is a big plus for me. It feels like it actually cleans without stripping everything away. The gel and moisturizer both have a really nice, lightweight feel. They absorb quickly and don’t leave any greasy or heavy residue, so they layer well and work great for everyday use. My skin has been feeling softer and more balanced since I started using them. If I had to point out anything, it’s that the moisturizer might not be quite enough on its own if you have very dry skin, but for normal to slightly dry skin it works really well. Overall, a solid routine—simple, gentle, and effective. I’d definitely keep using these.

Favorite!
Size: Gel Moisturizer
This is my favorite lightweight face lotion. It feels so hydrating when it goes on but not greasy. I also love that it doesn’t have a strong smell.
