They are half wine barrels and seem fine. The only things I had to do was drill drainage hole in the bottom and put preservative on the sawn edge of the top. **Q: Do you have to put a liner in it if you want to make a pond?** A: No. The barrel will arrive damp and the sooner you fill it with water the better as the wood swells and seals it water tight. I have had one full of water and water tight as a pond for over a year. **Q: What are the internal dimensions please?** A: My barrel is full of plants so cannot measure accurately but it is approx 51cm internal diameter at the bottom, 60cm internal diameter at the top and the height is 47cm. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Delivered on time and quality *by R***E on 10 June 2025* OK for the price ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Happy with my purchase. *by D***E on 12 November 2023* A good price when compared to some of the offerings in the garden centers. It arrived quickly and it wasn't as heavy as anticipated. I watched numerous videos on YouTube to look at options for drainage and staining. I drilled 5 half inch drainage holes in the bottom and another 4 drainage holes just above the bottom metal band. I sanded the barrel and the metal bands and then stained it 3 times with oak stain. Beware it takes a lot of compost to fill the barrel, I suggest you buy 200 litres, if it's too much it can be used elsewhere in your garden. I also added some perlite to the compost to help the drainage. So my overall advice is watch some YouTube videos and learn from other peoples successes and mistakes. I think this project including the barrel, plants, stain and compost cost me about £100 but it will last for year so worth the money and the effort. GOOD LUCK! ### ⭐⭐⭐ Not bad for the low price *by M***Y on 19 March 2023* I ordered two of these - one as a planter and the other to create a small pond. The ones I received are not anywhere near as nice (good quality) as the one shown in the pictures. Both the ones I received had a heavy layer of carbon/ burnt wood on the inside (from previous use as a wine barrel). You will need to scrub the inside of the barrel, using a wire brush to help reduce this. If you plan to use this as a planter with soil it is great and the prep needed is minimum. But, be prepared to mess around a lot and spend more money if you plan to use this as a small pond. The inside of the barrel constantly leaches out wine into your water. In fact, I don't think it will ever stop, regardless of how often you keep changing out the water. You will, at the very least, need to get a pond liner and make sure that the pond's water does not come into direct contact with the wood of the barrel. The best approach is to do it properly and seal the inside of the barrel with a specialised pond paint - this provides a protective barrier for the pond water. All of this messing around is very essential if you ever intend to put fish into one of these! As wine constantly leaches into the pond water this will certainly kill any fish you might plan to add (and it isn't that great for pond plants anyway!). After lots of trying and expense I eventually settled on going down the pond paint route. One litre of Gold Label paint/resin will provide enough to do the two coats required). I hope that helps. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/297512361-half-wine-barrel-oak-transformed-into-mini-flower-pot-mini](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/297512361-half-wine-barrel-oak-transformed-into-mini-flower-pot-mini) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-06-02*
