Lot 958: A Late Victorian Wrought Iron Wall-Mounted Planter
A wrought iron wall-mounted planter from the Late Victorian period, featuring a hand-forged frame with decorative scrollwork. The construction includes a central vertical backplate terminating in outward-curling scrolls at the top and bottom. Supporting the planting cradle are two forward-projecting arms made of twisted-bar iron. The cradle itself consists of a semi-circular flat iron band embellished with C-scroll and S-scroll flourishes. Housed within the ironwork is a semi-circular liner, likely metal or heavy plastic, finished in a faded yellow paint with a flat back designed to sit flush against a wall surface. The interior of the liner bears a white adhesive label with the handwritten text “WALL PLANTER 1898”, and another label from HCP Auctions South West reading “Lot 959”.
