Enormous Pair of German Ceramic Crucible Planters

Crucibles have been used throughout history to smelt metal and other substances, but the ceramic ones make outstanding planters. These grabbed us right away because of their enormous size and stunning sea-green color. Their very large planting wells will accommodate topiary and small trees and they have barely been used so the usual rim chips are pretty much absent. Wonderful potted up with moss for a Zen look or with Millet grass and trailing vines, they would be fabulous flanking the door of a contemporary or Arts and Crafts home. Stamped “Made in Germany”.
