The Cupped Hands Stone Garden Planter is a striking sculptural piece. Two outstretched hands form a natural bowl, creating the impression your garden is offering a gift.
Each planter is individually cast from reconstituted stone. The casting process captures fine detail across the fingers, palms, and cuffs. It arrives with a naturally aged finish that encourages moss and lichen growth over time.
Available in two colours: Aged Cotswold and Burnt Umber. The Cotswold finish suits traditional cottage gardens. Burnt Umber adds a warm, earthy tone to modern planting schemes.
At 80kg, this planter is very heavy and needs two people to move. The planting area measures 250mm x 400mm, ideal for trailing plants, succulents, or seasonal bedding. Position it on a patio, path edge, or garden table as a focal point.
Frequently asked questions
Is the Cupped Hands Planter frost resistant?
Yes, cast stone is naturally frost resistant. The dense material withstands freezing temperatures without cracking. We recommend placing it on a hard surface to allow drainage during winter months.
What plants work well in a cupped hands planter?
Trailing plants like ivy, lobelia, and creeping Jenny look particularly effective. The 250mm x 400mm planting area also suits small ferns, succulents, or seasonal bedding. Add gravel to the base before soil for drainage.
How heavy is the Cupped Hands Stone Planter?
The planter weighs 80kg without soil or plants. Two people are needed to lift and position it. The weight makes it extremely stable and impossible to blow over.
