A collection of seven glazed ceramic garden planters of varied sizes and decorative finishes. The group includes one large turquoise tapered planter featuring an embossed square medallion with the Chinese character Fu, signifying good fortune, bearing a paper label for Bedbrook and Co, Plymouth. Also included is a cylindrical planter finished in a vibrant blue glaze with a contrasting dark brown rim, bearing a product label G1004P. A further large tapered planter is finished in a dark green glaze and decorated with an incised geometric band of intersecting lines. The collection is completed by a set of four graduated two-tone pots, each featuring an ochre-coloured upper section with an embossed repeating link pattern above an off-white base. All planters are constructed from heavy-fired ceramic with glazed exteriors and incorporate pre-drilled drainage holes to the bases.
Condition report:
All items are in used, garden-ready condition. The collection shows significant evidence of outdoor use, including soil residue and mineral deposits to the interiors. Surface weathering, dirt, and moss growth are present, particularly around the rims and exterior bases. No major structural cracks or large chips are apparent, although minor surface abrasions and small nicks consistent with age and outdoor exposure are present throughout.
