Description

Our beautifully simple powder coated galvanised steel cube planters, handmade to order with discreet feet creating a subtle floating appearance.

Part of our Broxwood Collection, bringing together exceptional garden products made by skilled workshops closer to home, our contemporary cube planters are handmade to order by professional British fabricators.

Available in seven sizes from a compact 30cm cube right through to a substantial 100cm cube, the Broxwood Floating Cube is one of the most versatile planters in the collection. Its beautifully simple proportions work equally well in contemporary gardens, traditional settings, courtyards and larger commercial landscapes.

What sets this design apart is the discreet 15mm integrated feet beneath the planter. These lift the body very slightly above the ground, creating a subtle shadow line and the impression that the planter is almost floating. As well as looking good, the raised base improves airflow and drainage beneath the planter.

The smaller sizes are ideal for grasses, hydrangeas, lavender and seasonal planting, while the larger cubes have enough presence for clipped evergreens, Japanese maples and substantial specimen shrubs. Use one as a focal point, position a matching pair beside an entrance, or combine different sizes and colours through a larger planting scheme.

Powder Coated Galvanised Steel

Each planter is manufactured from heavy-duty galvanised steel before being finished with a durable powder coating. The galvanised steel provides excellent protection for outdoor use, while the powder coated surface gives the planter its smart, contemporary appearance.

With 147 standard RAL colours available, there's enormous freedom to tailor the planter to your garden or project. Choose timeless black or anthracite, softer greens and neutrals, or make the planter itself a feature with a stronger blue, yellow, burgundy or pink.

You can also coordinate your planters with doors, windows, garden furniture or other architectural details, making these particularly useful for professionally designed gardens and commercial landscaping schemes.

Every planter arrives fully assembled and ready to position, complete with pre-drilled drainage holes and integrated feet.

Each Broxwood Cube is made specifically for your order, so please allow up to one month for manufacture and delivery. Bespoke dimensions can also be quoted for larger residential and commercial projects.

Simple, architectural and incredibly versatile – the Broxwood Floating Cube combines proper British-made metalwork with an enormous choice of colour, creating a planter that can either quietly complement its surroundings or become a feature in its own right.

Depending on the size and quantity of pieces ordered, delivery will be made either via a parcel courier network or a palletised freight service.

How Long To Go Rusty?

My Corten products are dispatched in a raw steel finish as standard.

It will take up to 12 months for the steel to develop its final rusted look & protective layer, but it could be as soon as 6 months if your garden's conditions are just right!

This process depends on factors such as weather, climate, your proximity to the coast (sea spray) etc...

Bespoke Sizes

If our standard sizes aren't quite right for your space, don't worry. We're delighted to offer a bespoke service, allowing our workshop to manufacture many of our products to your exact requirements.

Simply get in touch using the enquiry form on this page and let us know what you have in mind. The more information you can provide, the better we'll be able to advise and prepare a quotation tailored to your project.

Thickness

As standard, planters supplied in the Corten Range are made from a 2mm thick, structural-grade steel. Water features are generally upgraded to a thicker 3mm.

However, depending on your intended use - if you would like to order an item made from a thicker, more substantial steel (up to 6mm thick), then please get in touch and I can source a quotation.

I would suggest upgrading the thickness if you are:-

  • Planting anything heavy
  • Located in a windy spot
  • Are near the coast
  • Planning on using these in a commercial setting

A heavier grade planter will always last longer.

Maintenance & Notes

Maintenance

Corten steel requires no maintenance as the rusted patina it naturally forms acts as a protective barrier meaning there’s no need for painting or sealing. Depending on the environmental exposure, Corten steel’s lifespan can exceed 50 years thanks to its self-protecting rust layer, which is why it’s ideal for outdoor applications.

Notes

During the natural weathering process, your piece may produce ‘runoff’ that could cause staining on the surface below. This risk is particularly high during the first three to six months of the weathering process. Keep an eye out if these needs washing off a new patio.

Please note that, once production has started, the workshop may not be able to accommodate changes to an order.

Once you have received your planter or water feature, please unpack it straight away. Planters left palletised or packaged may develop an uneven patina if exposed to moisture or rain.

Warranty

5 year manufacturer's structural warranty.

What is Corten Steel?

Corten steel is highly durable and resistant to corrosion. It develops a unique rusty patina that enhances its look over time and this layer protects it further from changing weather conditions, making it ideal for outdoor use.
