Slate Urns and Planters

We have developed a range of slate and onyx urns and planters over the years. These urns and planters certainly give your plants the wow factor and easily fit into most gardens to compliment your garden’s style.

The first planters we created used slate, a material that is familiar to us in Devon, one that we’ve worked with for many years. We spent a long time sourcing the right stone to use for the lighter planters, we wanted a lighter colour to contrast with the dark slate, but needed a stone that wasn’t porous and was hard wearing and eventually decided on Onyx.

Whether you choose the slate or onyx planters they are crafted using the same technique that has been used to build dry stone walls over the centuries. The outside layer of stone is set into a cement inner lining, making the pieces frost resistant and hard wearing in all seasons. We produce square, rectangular and round planters in a variety of sizes, but we also make bespoke planters on request.

Slate Urns and Planters

Our slate urns and planters are hand crafted using reclaimed slate, the pieces of slate that are used to create the urns are all unique, this makes the shape of each urn and planter unique. Whether you plant with a contemporary planting pallet, or a more formal one, you can be sure to achieve a sophisticated aesthetic with one of these ornamental slate planters or urns.

We are busy supplying out standard range of planters throughout the UK, we produce square, rectangular and round planters in a variety of sizes. We also get requests from clients for bespoke planters which are customised to their needs. A recent project asked us to create a planter with a large hole in the bottom so the tree could be planted directly in the soil, a different solution to an age-old problem!
