Garden
Garden and outdoor antiques bring character and nobility to open-air spaces. From stone benches and fountains to terracotta planters and garden sculptures, these pieces transform courtyards, terraces, and gardens into spaces with soul. Resistant to the passage of time, they improve with age.
Buying tips
Check the structural stability of stone or iron pieces. Moss and lichen on stone are desirable and add authenticity. For iron, verify that corrosion is only superficial. Consider weight for transport: stone pieces may require a crane.

Frequently asked questions
- Do garden antiques withstand the weather?
- Yes, most are designed for outdoors. Stone, terracotta, and wrought iron withstand the weather well. However, in climates with hard frosts, it is advisable to protect terracotta or raise it off the ground to prevent moisture absorption and frost cracking.
- How to transport heavy garden pieces?
- Contact the dealer to arrange shipping, as many work with carriers specialised in heavy and fragile pieces. Fountains and stone benches are usually shipped on pallets. Agree the transport directly with the dealer.
- What type of antique planter is best for plants?
- Terracotta planters are ideal because they allow soil to breathe. Stone planters retain more moisture. Cast iron ones need good drainage. Always place a gravel layer at the bottom and check for drainage holes.
