The Sloane range of window boxes and planters were designed by Harry Butcher, master plasterer, renowned for his work in restoring the fine elaborate ceilings in the City of London after World War 2. They are lightweight, durable and maintenance free, perfect and practical for modern life. The planting space is generous, and the design sits comfortably with classical or modern architecture.
About the Material
Lightweight, yet sturdy, these fiberglass planters will weather the elements with ease. The high strength material uses fibers of glass as a reinforcing agent in polymers or plastics. Their real benefit lies in the surface to weight ratio – in other words – they are lightweight and durable. They will easily contain the necessary potting soil without fear of cracking, splitting or warping. A serious long term alternative to terracotta and lead (and even some other metals) the Sloane Collection is ideal for use inside and out.
About the Finish
The stunning beauty of the white or black (at this time, black is available in small size only) reflect this classic style perfectly. The powder coating process ensures a highly protective, long lasting finish. Resistant to fading, chipping, scratching and UV rays, your fiberglass planter will look new every day. Colors stay bright and vibrant longer. It will not stain your siding like other finishes may.
