We love these planters and have one of them in our house, as well. Feel free to check out our house tour from last Friday to see one in its natural environment :-)

Looove these. I love them so much I can't decide between robins egg blue, or red, or baby pink, or.... The tallest sized ones make great little ice buckets for chilling drinks too :)

Darren's house tour also credited Le Gardo Tackett for Architectural Pottery as one of his planters. These are also really nice.

Doesn't DWR have them on sale for even cheaper now?

And for some of us, you can pick them up locally and not pay shipping.

I hope the remakes are better than the originals, because they kinda..sucked?

I had a pair to sell once, and they looked great as long as they were empty, but anything in the shells would make them wobbly and eager to fall over. The shells could also slip out of the prongs with the slightest bump, and they would bleach unevenly in the sun..they really were dreadful things! I think they finally went for ten bucks apiece.

Even with the discount, though good looking, these are still WAAAAAAYYYYY overpriced
