Cantera Stone Planter

16"W x 16"D x 7"H - Mexico - Stone

Sourced in Mexico and made by local stone artisans, these weather resistant planters are inspired by the ancient water troughs. Cantera stone is quarried volcanic rock that is mined in various regions of Mexico and Central America. Its name derives from the Spanish word "quarry." Its soft and durable properties allow for highly detailed carving and manipulation for architectural stone elements such as planters. Known also for not being as heavy as granite and marble, it makes for a more beautiful and functional stone element to any environment.
