Item Description
An incredibly rare and decorative run of decorative former foundry crucibles. c.1940
A striking collection of mid 20th century foundry crucibles, originally designed and used for melting metals at extremely high temperatures. Decades of repeated firing have produced an extraordinary surface texture and patina, with deep, mottled colours that echo the verdigris tones seen on oxidised copper. Each vessel carries its own unique history of use, giving the group a sculptural, almost geological presence.
Later repurposed as garden planters - a practical and visually compelling second life that suits modern interiors and outdoor spaces alike.
