{HISTORY}

Back in the mid-20th century, when you wanted to pot your herbs, or overwinter your favorite summer flower, or start a succulent garden for your sunny kitchen window sill, you reached for this green pottery planter. 

Oblong in shape, it's known as the window sill design since it is long and narrow and fits easily on most standard window sills. Unmarked by maker, it's thick-walled and heavy, possibly made by McCoy or Hull or Brush, and features an array of green shades highlighting a dramatic design of interesting lines and elongated triangles. 

The beauty of this shape and size (10" inches x 4" inches" is that you can fit quite a few small pots inside - up to four 2" inch pots if you like to keep things linear and still have a little extra room to grow (think herbs, bulbs or micro greens) or up to eight mini pots (think succulents, cactus or aloe) full of plants that don't mind cozying up to another. 

Similar to the changing colors in sea or lake water, when the sun catches the shiny glaze, all the colors of the planter really shine. Even though the overall color palette is a neutral mossy green, shades of avocado, seafoam, mustard, mint, and pine retreat and come forth as the natural light changes throughout the day. 

Between the textured pattern and the array of colors this is quite an interesting little art piece as much as a functional planter. It also happens to be a playground for your gardening imagination, and might just be the salve to get you through the fall and winter months while you wait to greet your outdoor garden in spring once again. 

{SPECIAL FEATURES}

  • Unique design
  • Unmarked as to maker or manufacturer
  • Contains several shades of green

{CONDITION}

In lovely vintage condition. This planter is clean and bright both inside and out. the glaze is shiny and reflective and there are no chips or cracks, with the exception of one 1/4" inch crack at the corner of one foot. Due to the placement and color palette, this small crack is barely noticeable and does not affect the planter's function in any way. Please see photos. 

{SIZE}

Measures 10" inches (length) x 4.5" inches (width) x 3.25" inches (height) and weighs just a smidge under 2 lbs.

Stable, attractive, and easy to turn into a table with your choice of top
Size: side table leg
The X-shape of the table legs - constructed with solid metal flanges, T-joints, X-joints and 1-inch diameter pipes - provides a strong and sturdy base for a wood top. The legs have adjustable feet pads to prevent scratches and ensure stability. Assembly of the legs is relatively simple (the instructions are clear) but you will need your own tools to attach a top. The industrial design is especially well suited to rec room or finished basement use. I am adding a 28" diameter raw edge slab of wood from a recently felled tree as the top and it is very attractive. (Photo unavailable because after I made certain it would work I sent the slab out for drying and finishing.) If you want a custom table and have a particular piece of wood you want to use, these legs are an excellent choice.

Very nice kit: Beware it is NOT heavy duty plumbing pipe though!
Size: side table leg
I want to give this kit a high rating, but I need to address the "truth in advertising" bit since there may be an important disconnect between what you think you are getting and what actually comes in the box. Black plumbing used for shelving or table legs is part of an important niche in interior design. I like the industrial loft look myself and have a variety of glass, steel, and masonry elements in my home. This kit fits that look and provides plenty of "strength" for most domestic uses, like shelves or coffee tables. But they are NOT "industrial pipe" or "maximum durability pipe." Note the phrase "cast iron finish feet," which together with the other claims might lead you to think these are cast plumbing fittings. They are NOT! The feet and flanges feel like electrical conduit fittings, and the pipe sections are likely aluminum. They might be electrical or they might be multi-use, lightweight pipe. While all this might lead you to think that you're getting a truly retro, heavy-duty pipe kit made of black plumbing pipe, you are not. But, does it matter? Depends. I find the lighter pipe's smooth finish a nice "tone-down" from the rough plumbing look. All together, this kit provides plenty of strength for most furniture and the rustic pipe look, but with a nicer, lighter finish. To me that is a plus--this is a very nice kit and costs less that if you'd pieced it together from real plumbing parts (I priced it out to compare), and looks retro but cleaner. I knew what to expect because while I got this kit free on Vine, I had purchased a nearly identical kit from another seller last year. So, I'm giving it 5 stars for what it actually is and for the price, JUST BE AWARE THE NARRATIVE IS MISLEADING. Which is unfortunate because just like some people might want the heavier pipe, I'm betting more would be attracted to the look with a cleaner, lighter feel.

Strong legs, somewhat industrial but trendy also
Size: side table leg
Good legs, some what utilitarian or industrial, they are strong as they are made out of pipe, and assembly is fairly easy once you get the idea of how it goes together. They are roughly 1.5 feet across maybe a bit less adjustable height on each leg, if you have wood floors you may want to put a pad under each leg as they are full metal pipes. Pretty interesting idea and does not cost much.

Pretty good, take your time and install it well
Size: side table leg
Materials are pretty solid, but once assembled it’s not as sturdy as you would think it should be since the material itself was solid, i say give them a chance, everything out there that’s similar is way over priced

Heavy duty legs for table.
Size: side table leg
Perfect legs for a table I am having made. I have an cottonwood slice. It's heavy and needed something substantial. These are perfect.
