This Art Nouveau-style planter from the 1950s is crafted entirely from metal, most likely cast iron or a metal alloy. The construction features a striking yet harmonious silhouette: a wide, flared rim, gently profiled body, and sturdy, rounded foot, evoking the historic forms of urns from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The dominant color is a cool, dark gray with a matte, subtly rough finish, enhanced by deliberate abrasions that highlight an aged patina effect. The lower portion is adorned with a regular, raised motif of stylized leaves or petals, providing textured depth and subtle play of light and shadow. The planter is made as one single mold without visible seams or added components. Its condition is very good; visible patina and light abrasions are intentional stylistic choices and do not affect functionality. There are no cracks or significant damage.This planter tells a story of fascination with the Art Nouveau movement, recalling an era when organic, fluid lines flowed into applied arts. Its form and ornamentation conjure images of city gardens beneath the arches of cast-iron gates, while the aged gray and patinated surface preserve the spirit of a vanished age—as if each detail holds a fragment of historic ambiance. The leaf motif appears to echo a whisper of the natural world and the mastery of past artisans, inviting the user to feel part of an enduring design tradition.The planter could serve as a
