Lotus design by Anna Kraitz – Nola

The lotus flower provided the inspiration for this exotic planter made in sandcast recycled aluminium. As a pure white flower that floats on the surface of murky waters, the lotus provides a symbol for inner purity in Buddhism and other Eastern traditions. The planter’s sculptural design captures the beauty of the petals’ rounded shapes as it creates a container for flowers, plants and ornamental trees. Clustering several planters together creates an attractive feature, while placing them in a row can provide a stylish means of dividing space. The planter’s unique style fits into a wide variety of outdoor settings and makes it possible to bring the natural world indoors. The planter also presents a moment for pause, inviting those passing by to reflect on the serenity symbolised by the lotus flower itself.
