This imposing ensemble is an elegant example of the XIX century naturalist style of ornament. The surprising combination of basketwork and dragon’s feet is characteristic of this style. These jardinieres are used by the Royal Horticultural Society to enhance the border of the canal area at Wisley. For dimensions, see diagram below.

It is essential that your Victorian Jardiniere and bases are sited on a firm and level area. An 8-1 sand/cement bedding mortar should be used to ensure that the weight of the jardiniere and bases is spread evenly, avoiding any pivoting or twisting strain. We cannot accept responsibility for cracking or breakage if this instruction is ignored.
