The
Gothic Planter
An artificial stone planter after the
original element from the Palace of Westminster, of hexagonal form
pierced with Gothic trefoils.
The original formed part of a spire section
of the Gothic revival work of Wyatt on the Houses of Parliament,
Circa 1805, and was probably removed following the disastrous
fire of 1834 and the rebuilding by Sir Charles Barry.
The architectural elements were given
to prominent political figures of the day and were used to decorate
the grounds of the great estates.
Hand patinated Artifiical Stone in four sections.
