The Houseplant That Practically Looks After Itself
Rather marvellous news if you're the forgetful sort: this gorgeous Snake Plant arrives with a rather fetching velvet finish that feels absolutely splendid to the touch. It's the kind of plant that won't judge you for missing a watering or two, yet somehow manages to look utterly showstopping on your shelf. Native to western Africa, it's been fending for itself for centuries, and frankly, it's rather good at it.
Why Choose Our Velvet Touch Snake Plant
Air Purifying Marvel: Works tirelessly to increase oxygen levels throughout your home while improving humidity, which tends to do wonders for dry skin and throats during those ghastly winter months.
Beautifully Crafted Finish: The velvet-touch coating gives this plant a unique, tactile quality. Yes, it will eventually grow out over time, but we're talking years, so you needn't panic.
Genuinely Low Maintenance: Waters itself conceptually by thriving on neglect. Keep it moist during spring and summer, then rather dry during autumn and winter, and it simulates its natural habitat perfectly.
Proper Houseplant Credentials: Belongs to the Succulent family, meaning it's practically indestructible and rather forgiving of your lifestyle choices.
Product Details
Height Upon Arrival: 20 to 40cm, measured including the nursery pot.
Pot Size: Diameter of 9cm nursery pot included.
Light Requirements: Prefers bright, indirect light. Can tolerate sun, but avoid all-day direct exposure.
Temperature: Keeps happiest between 15 and 28 degrees Celsius during the day, 12 to 20 degrees at night.
Care Approach: Mimics the dry and rainy seasons of its African origins for genuinely contented growth.
This rather good plant won't demand much from you, yet delivers substantially. Rather the ideal houseplant partnership, wouldn't you say.
SHIPPING + RETURNS
THE RATHER IMPORTANT BITS
This rather lovely piece ships directly from our brand partner - we work with independent brands who are absolutely brilliant and work frightfully hard to create beautiful things.
SHIPPING DESTINATIONS
Now, here's the thing - our wonderful brand partners ship to lots of different places, but not all of them can ship worldwide.
Some are brilliant at international shipping, others prefer to keep things closer to home.
At checkout, you'll see exactly where this particular brand can send your goodies.
We're terribly sorry, but shipping costs do vary rather wildly depending on where you are in the world. The exact figures pop up at checkout - no nasty surprises!
RETURNS
You have 14 days to return items.
Now, we absolutely adore our brand partners - they work incredibly hard and we do try to support them as much as we possibly can. So I'm rather afraid we have to pass the return postage costs back to you. Frightfully sorry about that!
🌍 PLEASE CHOOSE THOUGHTFULLY:
Our wonderful partners put their hearts into everything they make.
Ordering multiple sizes to try at home is rather hard on our planet and makes things jolly difficult for these brilliant independent creators.
When in doubt, do ask us first!
PAYMENT
We're frightfully modern and accept all the usual suspects:
Visa, Mastercard, American Express, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Shop Pay
SECURE AS HOUSES

We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect. Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience.
Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently. Explore our British makers, discover sustainable brands, browse women-led businesses, find the perfect gift for her, or simply wander through our new arrivals and see what finds you.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — read all about us, or step inside and see what catches your imagination.
A Curated Marketplace for Independent Ethical Brands
Discover our world of independent brands, conscious design, and purposeful creativity — all in one place.
Sostter is more than a marketplace. We're here to inspire a more thoughtful way to shop — one that celebrates the makers, the dreamers, and the independent brands doing things properly. Every brand on Sostter has been individually vetted for its originality, quality, and values. From sustainable fashion and ethical homeware to handmade jewellery and design-led gifts — all brought together in one considered space. Browse by location, by purpose, or simply wander and see what finds you. Want to sell with us? We'd love to hear from you.
