Arts and Crafts Planter

Mid 19th Century Arts and Crafts

Movements in furniture construction and design naturally evolve through artistic interpretations.  They reflect the conditions of the periods in which they were conceived. Arts and Crafts style furniture, accordingly, arose in history from the immediate tangible effects of industrialization on construction.

Factory mass-production, for the anti-industrialists, was seen as a problem that spilled over into furniture making

In furniture, it manifested as a return to brilliantly uncomplicated construction. Designers looked deep into the materials to harness the power of nature in construction. Aesthetic subtleties such as grain direction and natural arches helped the Arts and Crafts school build furniture that was solid by nature, conscious of symmetry, and conjured the nostalgic feeling of home.

Oxford Planters incorporated the Linear patterns and symmetry, so often associated with the Arts and Crafts style, in this planter design.  This planter is made to order in your specified dimensions in A1 Accoya and spray coated your choice of colour.
