"Pot-Bellied" Pair of Cement Planters, France, 1950s

About the Item

Fun and gloriously rotund pair of planters with three "peek-a-boo" openings around their middles. They are made of cement with tiny pebbles amalgatmated into the mix, as was the fashion in the '50s in France. They have acquired a beautiful grey-green patina, with mossy areas, from years spent out of doors. Very heavy.
