20th Century Swiss Willy Guhl Handkerchief Planter

A monumental and highly sought-after handkerchief planter by Swiss designer Willy Guhl — 13" H x 32" W x 32" D, presented with moss and lichen. This is the iconic Guhl silhouette, the draped, fold-like form that has become one of the most instantly recognizable shapes in 20th century design. Guhl pioneered the use of concrete and fiber cement as a sculptural medium for outdoor and indoor objects, and the handkerchief planter remains his most celebrated and collected design. At this scale the piece commands an entryway, terrace, or great room with extraordinary presence. A significant investment work for the serious collector of mid-century design — genuinely museum quality and increasingly rare to find. One of a kind — available exclusively at CASA CDM.
