Hexagonal brass planter in golden brass, made in France, dating from 1970–1980.
Description from the seller
This planter perfectly embodies that hybrid style so characteristic of mid-1950s Hollywood Regency, where cinematic glamour blended with the clean lines typical of late Art Deco. Its hexagonal structure gives it a strongly geometric presence, elegant without being excessive, while the golden metal provides that warm, sophisticated shine we instantly associate with interiors of the era: luxurious, theatrical, and designed to impress.
The metallic body displays a deep gold, slightly softened by time, which enhances the planes and edges of the piece. The upper edge opens with a subtle outward gesture, like a small cornice that lightens the form and gives it a more sculptural air. On one side stands a metal ring, not only functional but also decorative, introducing a classic wink reinterpreted under the modern aesthetics of the decade.
It is a piece that works both as a planter and as an independent decorative object. Its presence is bold yet refined, capable of integrating into contemporary, eclectic, or vintage environments without losing its character. It represents that moment when American design sought accessible glamour, combining shiny materials, clean shapes, and a touch of fantasy that today is irresistible to mid-century collectors and design lovers.
Certified shipping and good packaging.
