The Stud™ Cross-Braced Wooden Planter
Made in Oak, Iroko or Accoya
A Distinctive Cross-Braced Wooden Planter
The Stud™ is a distinctive wooden planter defined by its cross-braced panels, strong square proportions and contrasting metal detailing.
Its design combines traditional joinery with a more architectural approach to decoration. Diagonal timber braces create the characteristic cross pattern on each face, while the horizontal metal band and visible studs provide a contrasting detail around the upper section of the planter.
The result is a planter with considerably more visual character than a simple panelled design, making the Stud particularly suited to locations where the planter itself is intended to become part of the garden’s architecture.
Each Stud is individually handmade to order in our Cotswolds workshop in Oak, Iroko or Accoya™, with dimensions and finish selected to suit its setting.
Architectural Detail from Every Angle
The Stud has been designed as a three-dimensional garden feature rather than simply a container for planting.
Cross-bracing continues around the planter, creating a strong geometric rhythm when viewed from different directions. The contrasting metal detailing emphasises the upper edge and provides another layer of visual interest.
Substantial construction and carefully considered proportions allow the design to accommodate specimen planting while retaining its distinctive architectural character.
