• For Multiples– We will ensure they work well together, but exact colour matching (especially copper tones) is not guaranteed or offered.
• Online orders – Single items are picked at random from stock. We will not open multiple heavy crates to select colours.
• Copper tones are rare and cannot be requested when ordering online.  If you want to hand-pick your colour/tone, please visit our showroom selection area.
•  Website images show examples only – your planter will be unique. Natural slate comes from the earth – it is not manufactured. These differences are what make it special.

Slate is a metamorphic rock with a fine grain, it has the unique ability to be split accurately into straight slabs and plates. The split sheets each display unique texture and colouration, though always with a predominantly grey base. Slate varies in colour depending on where it is mined as the individual composition of the rock varies between localities. Slate is particularly suitable for use as a planter as it has an extremely low water absorption index, meaning that it is resistant to frost damage. It is incredibly durable and will last for hundreds of years, a Foras slate plinth is a feature for life.
