Egypt planter and water basin
Design: Jan OstwaldDescription
The Egyptian pyramids are among the most monumental structures ever built, providing a standard for simple geometric designs. The Egypt planter and water basin turns this classic form upside-down and places it within a steel frame that lifts it above the ground. The planter is a perfect shape for plants, flowers and blossoming vines, and its watertight construction makes it suitable as a water feature or fountain fixture.
