Pair of Large Faux Bois Garden planters

Faux Bois captures to look and texture of wood and its grain.  It was particularly popular in the late 19^th century through to the 1940’s. Garden ornaments, garden planters, bird baths, garden seating and tables were all created with this very effective and realistic false log effect.
