A Pair of Natural Wabi Sabi Stone Garden planters – Welsh slate

Rugged Elegance: A Pair of Large Slate Planters

Elevate your outdoor living space with this exceptional pair of planters, crafted from the finest natural Welsh slate sourced directly from the renowned Cwt-y-Bugail slate mine in the foothills of Snowdonia National Park.

The Cwt-y-Bugail quarry has long been recognised as one of the premier sources of high-quality Welsh slate, prized for its distinctive character and unparalleled durability. Nestled within the breath-taking landscapes of Snowdonia, this historic site has been providing exceptional building materials for centuries, making it the ideal source for these beautiful garden planters.

Each planter in this set features a riven surface, a result of the natural cleavage planes within the slate. This unique texture creates a rugged, tactile quality that beautifully complements the minimalist design, evoking a sense of wabi-sabi – the Japanese aesthetic that celebrates the beauty in imperfection. The natural variations and subtle gradations of colour within the slate add to the charm and individuality of each piece.
