Description

This is a set of outdoor garden planters that have been made out of old drink barrels. They are very heavy. We have priced them as a set but we will consider splitting them if requested. See below for individual prices. The two larger ones are the top & bottom of a large cognac barrel. The smaller ones are cut from smaller barrels. They have very recently had a coat of wood preserver so may weather a little between now & sale. I would expect the aged metalwork to start showing through a little. You may consider painting this with a metal paint. They are stored in the dry. Available for collection from Normandy, France (immediately) or East Kent in the U.K (with about a weeks notice) Delivery available within our personal operating range in Northern France & Southern England only. Costs in the region of £100-£250 depending on your location. You are also welcome to arrange your own courier (estimated total weight of around 100-150KG) If sold individually: Large ones: £300 (International delivery not available, UK & France possible. Collection OK) Medium ones: £80 (International delivery expensive, UK & France not too bad, Collection OK, e.g. U.S. £80) Smaller one: £50 (International delivery possible but quite expensive, UK & France not too bad, e.g. U.S. £40) Please ask for postage quotes if interested Markings: A. Drouillard Cognac Sourced: in Normandy, France Origin: France Age: circa 1940-50’s Materials: wood, metal Size: Largest 35 inches across, medium 17 inches across, small 12.5 inches across Weight: 100-150kg Condition: in used vintage condition. Due to being dry stored the panels have loosened a little but everything is still strong & stable. There are nails sticking out here & there & obvious wear & tear as they have been around for a while. One of the larger ones has a panel that has come out of place at one end whilst dry stored. See picture 5. This will likely push back in but does not create a structural issue as is. The previous owner used them to store their vegetables through the winter for some decades. in summary: A nicely aged quite unique set of planters.
