French Faux Bois Concrete Footed Planter, 1940s - 2 Available

$1,200.00

A French faux bois footed planter from the 1940s, sculpted in concrete to evoke the organic texture of carved wood. Raised on three sturdy legs, the cylindrical vessel is richly worked with bark-like relief, its surface animated by deep grooves and irregular contours that mimic the natural growth of a tree trunk.

Subtle variations in tone, soft stone, mossy green, and weathered earth, settle into the crevices, enhancing the effect. Equally compelling indoors or outdoors.

Sold and priced individually.

DIMENSIONS: 12"W x 12"D x 14.75"H

ORIGIN: France

PERIOD: 1940s

MATERIALS: Concrete

CONDITION: Good vintage condition overall with wear throughout appropriate with age and outdoor use. Each planter has two drainage holes along the sides.

While our vintage garden furniture, decor, and lighting were originally used as indoor/outdoor, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, rain, extreme humidity, heat, cold, or wet climates can lead to natural aging, fading, and potential deterioration. We recommend using protective covers when not in use and storing items indoors during adverse weather or cold winters.

Stone and other durable materials will develop a unique patina and character but may also weather and change color when left outdoors for extended periods. Some wear and tear is expected and adds to the vintage charm of your garden decor. South Loop Loft is not liable for cracks and fissures that occur on natural stone, either vintage or contemporary, in freeze/thaw environments or environments with excessive heat or moisture.

By purchasing from South Loop Loft, you acknowledge that our Garden products require appropriate care to ensure longevity and optimal performance across different climates.
