Ceramic Hummingbird Feeder — Tangerine
Bring color, movement, and living beauty into your garden with this handmade ceramic hummingbird feeder. Each feeder is made and glazed by hand in vibrant, luminous color. Designed as both functional feeder and sculptural garden art, it ages beautifully outdoors and becomes part of the landscape through the seasons. At 6½ inches tall and 5 inches wide, this feeder holds a generous 3 cups of nectar — reducing refill frequency while still keeping nectar fresh.
Details • Height: 6½ inches • Width: 5 inches • Holds: 3 cups of nectar • High-fired glazed stoneware • Includes cork feeder assembly with glass tube and flower port • Stainless steel hanging wire (rust resistant for outdoor use) • Handmade in small batches This feeder operates using a simple vacuum system. Once filled and inverted, nectar fills the glass tube and creates a natural vacuum inside the ceramic reservoir. Nectar is released only when hummingbirds drink from the flower port. If you notice dripping after hanging: • ensure the cork is firmly seated • slightly adjust or reseat the tube and flower port • confirm all components are snug and airtight. A properly sealed feeder will stop dripping after the initial fill of the tube. Hummingbirds do not need red dye — the flower provides the visual cue. Simple Nectar Recipe: • 1 part white granulated sugar • 4 parts water. Bring water to a boil, stir in sugar until dissolved, then cool completely before filling feeder. Unlike mass-produced plastic feeders, glazed stoneware won’t cloud or degrade in sun, maintains stable temperature, ages beautifully over time, and feels substantial and enduring. This is a feeder designed to be used, enjoyed, and passed down — not replaced every season.
