Designed by Willy Guhl, one of the most influential figures in 20th-century modernist garden and architectural design, this planter reflects his signature balance of minimalism, function, and material innovation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe planter features a deep rectangular box form with thick, solid walls and integrated raised corner feet, a purposeful design element that allows for proper drainage and airflow while lending the piece an architectural, elevated presence. The interior retains its original drainage holes, along with visible mineral deposits and soil remnants that attest to decades of authentic planting use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe exterior surface displays a richly developed natural patina, with layered tones of soft gray, stone white, and organic moss accumulation. Subtle surface texture, discoloration, and weathering are consistent with long-term outdoor exposure and enhance the planter’s sculptural character rather than detract from it. These age-related elements are highly sought after and characteristic of original Willy Guhl Eternit planters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRooted in mid-century Swiss modernism, the understated industrial aesthetic aligns seamlessly with brutalist landscapes, minimalist gardens, and wabi-sabi interiors. Equally compelling indoors or outdoors, this planter functions as both a practical vessel and a timeless sculptural object, embodying the enduring appeal of Willy Guhl’s design philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1727\" data-end=\"1995\"\u003eDimensions: 6\" D x 6\" W x 15.5\" H\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HOMMES + GARDENS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45635843915973,"sku":null,"price":690.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/5287\/7765\/files\/Mid-Century_Modern_Rectangular_Fiber_Cement_Planter_Box_with_Aged_Patina.jpg?v=1768484628","url":"https:\/\/hommesandgardens.com\/products\/mid-century-modern-rectangular-fiber-cement-planter-box-with-aged-patina","provider":"Hommes + Gardens","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
