Antique French Limestone Trough

Antique French Limestone Trough SKU: TR107_FC105.N is a wide, rectangular block defined by its smoothly rounded interior corners and stark two-toned exterior. A heavy organic patina splits the deeply pitted outer walls, with dark charcoal staining across the upper half and vivid mossy green creeping up heavily from the base. The dark outer surface breaks at the thick top rim, revealing a bright, chalky white inner basin. A single, circular drainage hole pierces the lower right section of one of the long faces.

Positioned beneath a cascading wall fountain, the broad footprint easily catches heavy splashing water. Integrated into a dry garden design, the heavy vessel transforms into a striking standalone planter for structural succulents. Set directly on a manicured lawn, the solid rock can perfectly work as an oversized, rustic birdbath.

The weathered, two-toned stone provides a strong material contrast when positioned against warm, slatted teak fencing. Resting the rectangular block on dark basalt cobblestones immediately highlights the vivid green patina coating the lower exterior. Flanking the trough with smooth terracotta pots emphasizes the stark, chalky white tones of the inner basin.
