About the Item

An exceptional mid-20th century industrial iron planter, salvaged from a European factory where it once served as a utilitarian vessel for holding raw materials and/or scrap metal during the height of post-war industrial production. Its robust, welded construction and heavy gauge is typical of that time period. The surface showcases decades of authentic wear, with layers of distressed black paint revealing deep traces of burnt red underneath. This creates a painterly, almost abstract composition that truly is what sets this piece apart from most. Today, it stands as a sculptural object, rich in history and visual intrigue. Whether repurposed as a planter, storage piece or simply admired for its raw beauty, it makes a strong statement in any interior or garden setting.
