French Antique Half Moon Limestone Trough

French Antique Half Moon Limestone Trough FI101-18.A features a compact, semi-circular profile designed to rest flush against a vertical surface. The limestone exterior is heavily pitted and rugged, creating a coarse, tactile surface that catches deep shadows. The palette consists of pale creamy bone and muted sand, broken up by soft gray mineral speckling throughout the stone.

The rim is thick and irregular, showing softened edges from historical wear. Inside, the basin surface is smoother than the exterior but retains a chalky, dry texture. At 29 inches wide and only 14 inches high, this piece is sized for tighter spaces like entryways or small patios.

It functions efficiently as a catch basin for a wall-mounted spout, where the flat back ensures a tight fit against masonry. It also serves well as a planter for kitchen herbs or trailing ivy, allowing the greenery to drape over the rough stone face. Place this trough against a smooth plaster or brick wall. The heavy, pitted stone anchors the vertical surface, turning a blank facade into a deliberately aged architectural feature. It provides the gravitas of a built-in antique, making the garden feel deeply rooted and established.
