The photo above is the Palm Beach home of Danielle Rollins and fiancé Tom D'Agostino featuring their darling goldendoodle Henry. It features lots of blue and white Chinese porcelain.
Here are some great picks for the garden.
I love blue and white Chinese garden stools in the garden. I have 8 in my garden including 2 flanking the front door. Here are some beautiful choices. I have had garden stools in my garden in NOVA for 30 years and now here in Florida and they have not aged at all. I did not store them in the winter, but NOVA does not have terribly severe winters. Every single one of these below is under $100 with free shipping.

This Bunny Williams garden obelisk is stunning. It is metal wrapped in gray resin wicker. Singly or as a pair, this would make quite a statement in the garden.

I love blue and white Chinese fishbowls outdoors. Keep in mind that most all come without a drainage hole. You have three options.
1. Use the fishbowl as a cachepot taking the potted plant out to water it.
2. Drill a drainage hole. I have not done this, but have read that a diamond bit is used.
3. Purchase one with a drainage hole. Oriental Furnishings gives you the option of a drainage hole for a $10 upcharge.

This fabulous Miles Redd Chinese Chippendale Bench is on sale with free shipping. I love this bench and it is cast aluminum and powder coated so it should last beautifully.

A coral pink watering can - too fun! I just ordered this.

What great finds! I would LOVE to see some pictures of your garden with your Chinese garden stools, fishbowls and palms. :+)
ReplyDeleteI will as soon as I finish a few projects like my exterior painting.
DeleteI don't think you want a drainage hole. If you have one the plant would just drain all over the floor.
ReplyDeleteThe subject of this post is chinoiserie in the garden, not in the house, so there is no floor.
DeleteDanielle's garden is gorgeous, and there are so many wonderful finds here, Beth. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI love the citrus trees in the fishbowls - I plan to try that.
DeleteI really love chinoiserie in the garden. I currently don't have any fishbowl planters because I was under the impression that they'd get ruined if I leave them outside but see that's not the case. And that Bunny Williams obelisk, love it so much. I haven't seen it in person so I'm a little hesitant but I'm dreaming about putting it in the middle of a knot garden edged in Box. Spring is coming quick to No CA, I need to get some solid plans together as I definitely will be bringing some chinoiserie to the garden this year.
ReplyDeleteAs for the fishbowls, just protect from hard freezes if you are planting in them. My experience with Bunny Williams pieces from Ballard has been excellent.
