About the Item

Pair of low rectangular trough planters attributed to Swiss architect Willy Guhl, showcasing his minimalist approach to functional design. Raw concrete construction features subtle diamond lattice relief pressed into all sides, creating geometric texture that exemplifies Guhl's architectural sensibility. The clean, elongated forms demonstrate the marriage of sculpture and utility that defined Swiss Mid-Century modernism. Guhl pioneered the use of fiber concrete for garden furniture and planters during the 1950s and 1960s, creating designs that balanced brutalist materiality with refined geometric patterns. The diamond relief adds visual interest while maintaining the planters' fundamental simplicity, reflecting the designer's commitment to honest materials and purposeful ornamentation. Planters show wear consistent with age and outdoor use, including surface weathering and natural patina development. Material content may contain asbestos fibers. Recommended for outdoor use. Priced as a set of two.
