Willy Guhl Concrete Urn Planter, 1960's

An exceptional vintage outdoor planter designed by pioneering Swiss industrial designer Willy Guhl for Eternit circa 1960. This rare silhouette features a beautifully balanced biomorphic form, featuring a wide rounded base that dramatically pinches inward before flaring out gracefully at the rim. Forged from Guhl's signature molded fiber cement, this sculptural vessel has spent decades outdoors, developing a deeply layered, patina. The heavily textured matte surface boasts stunning organic mineral staining, showcasing earthy grays, mossy greens, and soft, muted purple undertones. It stands as a striking testament to mid-century functional simplicity and is highly sought after by collectors of modernist landscape and interior design. Good condition with wear as shown. Very unusual shape. 2 available. Priced individually. Located at our Los Angeles gallery.
