as was often the case

Light surface wear to the face and some rusting to the back

So many context in which this could be great

and it is possible that both dogs and sleds once sat upon a wood or bone plinth

something about the angled ramp on the front side together together with the open square at center and the pitch of the green roof just totally does it for me

Rare (and Perfect) Matte Gray Mid-Century Zanesville Ribbed Planter steel painted object as was often the caseI've bought and sold a handful of mid century Zanesville ribbed planters and vases over the years of various sizes, and every time I find one think how good they are. I've never seen one in matte gray (charcoal, really) like this though, and think it's extra good. A perfect smallish planter. 5 1 2" in diameter x 4 5 16" t and in great vintage condition, no chips, cracks or other issues.
