Arts and Crafts tradition, updated for modern urban landscapes.
This collection was inspired by a vase made by Oakland arts-and-crafts master Dirk van Erp. The "hammered" texture is integral to the FRP fiberglass, and mimics the hand-hammered copper created in his workshop. Our ability to create metal-infused finishes allows the original intent he had to come through, albeit on a far larger scale than would have been possible then. GFRC concrete versions of the pot keep the arts-and-craft shape, but don't share the same hammered texture.
Tournesol Siteworks’ standard pots & planters are designed to be used with drain holes. When a container needs to be watertight, we recommend waterproofing the interior. Our TourneSeal coating system is liquid applied, elastomeric waterproofing material, designed to seal the pot. While we water test every planter coated with TourneSeal, best practices (and our warranty) demand that the installing contractor field test with 6” of water to confirm the absence of installation or shipping damage prior to planting.
All of our pots & planters are designed to be used with drain holes to ensure long-term plant health. Typically, our FRP pots are delivered without drain holes to allow the contractor to field verify the correct location prior to drilling. Tournesol Siteworks is pleased to pre-drill drain holes in either GFRC lightweight concrete or FRP fiberglass pots when requested by the customer. Standard drain hole configurations (see below) are done free-of-charge at the factory. For unique configuration hole sizes or quantities, please speak with your salesperson.
