Willy Guhl Low Handkerchief Planters
These iconic planters by Swiss designer Willy Guhl pair minimalist geometry with sculptural form through unmistakable gently draping “handkerchief” forms. Cast in the artist's signature fibre-cement, their low, wide bowls with artfully bent folds offer a dramatic silhouette with modest height. The surfaces carry thoughtful patina: sprinklings of moss, natural discoloration, subtle texture variations, and age-marked stains, all of which deepen their character and underscore the authenticity of vintage work. Perfect for sleek terraces, modern interiors, or any setting that favors artful yet functional outdoor design.
Offered as a set of two. Additional pieces may be available by request.
