Overview

A gorgeous and rare rectangular box planter by Willy Guhl. Brutalist design embraced by nature, these planters have spent decades acquiring a fabulous patina, affording them an inimitable quality. With spots of lichen, moss, and oxidation to the iron frame, they stand as a relic of midcentury design, and a testament to timeless beauty. Incredibly substantial and weighty with massive presence. Signs of wear throughout. A crack on one has been previously repaired as pictured. Rare pieces. 3 available. Priced individually. 

Located at our Los Angeles showroom.

Designer Notes
Willy Guhl
b. 1915
Willy Guhl was a Swiss industrial designer, who in the mid-20th century pioneered the application of utilitarian materials, notably concrete, in modern outdoor furniture design, such as his in the design of his iconic Loop Chair. Guhl became renowned for his use of fiber-reinforced concrete, a composite material that combines cement with fibers to enhance strength and durability. His designs, marked by clean lines and functional elegance, reflect a commitment to both beauty and use. Guhl's design and creative use of materials contributed to a redefinition of the aesthetic and functional possibilities of concrete in design during the mid-20th century.
