Fiber cement planter known as the Biasca model or "elephant ear" made by Willy Guhl (1915-2004) in the 1950s.
Willy Guhl was a pioneer of Swiss industrial design.
Eternit, a fiber cement developed for roofing and piping, appealed to Willy Guhl because of its fibrous texture, which resists traction, breakage and climatic variations.
Our planter is sold as is (with dents).
Circa 1950
