An iconic piece of mid-century architectural garden design: the “Handkerchief” or Mouchoir planter, designed by pioneering Swiss industrial designer Willy Guhl in the 1950s for Eternit. 

This example has a phenomenal, heavily weathered exterior patina, with natural moss, lichen growth and mineral deposits accumulated over decades of outdoor exposure.

Good vintage condition with character-rich weathering. The fibre cement structure is stable and solid. Authentic surface wear, minor nibbles along the raw edges, and heavy discolouration, moss, and lichen are consistent with an outdoor piece of this age and contribute to its collectible aesthetic. Includes the original factory-drilled drainage hole at the base. Please note one corner is chipped and missing its angular form.

 

Depth: 70cm

Width: 70cm  


Height: 25cm
