"Handkerchief" (or "Elephant's Ear") garden planter designed by the influential Swiss designer Willy Guhl
Iconic large garden planter designed by the renowned Swiss designer and architect Willy Guhl, celebrated for his pioneering use of fibre cement and his influential contribution to 20th-century garden design. Commonly known as the “Handkerchief” or “Elephant’s Ear” planter, this sculptural piece is admired for its elegant flowing form and minimalist aesthetic.
The planter’s distinctive folded shape creates a striking architectural silhouette, making it as much a work of art as a functional garden vessel. Its beautifully weathered surface enhances the character of the piece, while the timeless design allows it to complement both contemporary and traditional settings with equal ease.
Ideal for displaying ornamental grasses, architectural plants, succulents, or seasonal planting, this highly sought-after design works beautifully in gardens, courtyards, terraces, conservatories, and interior spaces. The organic curves and understated elegance exemplify the innovative vision that made Willy Guhl one of the most influential garden designers of the modern era.
A rare and desirable design classic, combining sculptural beauty, exceptional craftsmanship, and enduring mid-century modern appeal. Please not very small chip to one corner.
