Pair of Lotus Basins

Rooted in mud, the lotus extends long stalks to bring its lovely blossoms to the water’s surface, making the plant a potent Buddhist symbol for purity and detachment from desire. An appropriate motif for a water-holding vessel, the lotus defines the shape of these petite basins. Carved from grey marble, they appear as large flowers spreading their graceful petals over the rim. A delightful addition to the garden, the pair can be filled with flowering plants or used as a water fountain.
