Massive carved stone jardinière 1950

A planter carved with a gouge from a block of stone. Admiration for the contrast of velvety and soft mosses with the minerality of the stone, the oblong shape and its curves, the colours of lichen, and then the wonderful effect that time has had on this splendid piece that is both humble and spectacular, strong and gentle, useful and poetic. The original pebble that covered the drainage hole is part of all this beauty. Length 41cm. Width 22.5cm. Height 14cm. When you know, you know.
