About the Item

Made to order Florida keystone planter with base. 16” diameter 10x10” base. Inspired by Coral Castle, an oolite limestone structure created by the Latvian-American eccentric Edward Leedskalnin in the 1920’s during a time where there was no equipment to move or carve the large pieces. Coral Castle is noted for legends surrounding its creation that claim it was built single-handedly by Leedskalnin using reverse magnetism or supernatural abilities to move and carve numerous stones, each weighing many tons. Creating sculptural planters from this came to me as a 3am thought. If Edward did it in the 1900s, how hard can it be today? Apparently very challenging. I chose to go with Keystone, which is the bedrock found only in the Florida Keys. You can no longer excavate keystone unless a building is approved to break ground. The second challenge was finding the fabricator who has the right CNC machine to cut spheres. Once again, the plants guided me. A nursery run would give me the lead where I could bring my vision to life. Tears included.
