Classical Woman Head Wall Planter Sconce – Vendemmia 17H

Tuscan-Inspired Classical Wall Planter for Garden or Home

This classical wall planter features a serene woman’s head crowned with grapes and leaves. Her calm expression and lowered gaze suggest quiet reflection, as if she watches over your doorway, terrace, or garden wall. The design recalls Victorian and Art Nouveau sculpture, yet feels right at home in a contemporary space.

The crown of grapes circling her hair celebrates the rituals of wine and harvest. In Italy, vendemmia marks the joyful grape harvest season, when vineyards come alive with work, music, and shared meals. Displaying her on a wall brings a hint of that festive vineyard spirit into everyday life.

The rectangular top functions as a generous planting space. Use it as a wall planter for trailing ivy, herbs, or seasonal flowers. Or treat it as a garden wall sconce, filling it with cut greenery or dried branches for a more sculptural display. As plants spill over the rim, they frame her face like a living wreath.

Made from durable fiberstone, the piece offers the look of carved stone with a lighter weight. The White Moss finish highlights delicate features, grape clusters, and scrolling details, making shadows and textures stand out even from a distance. A wall mount is built into the back during production for easier hanging.

About Fiberstone

Fiberstone is a blend of real stone cast into the surface and strengthened with a fiberglass backing. The material is then stained by hand to create the look of weathered stone. Each piece displays unique imperfections that enhance its character while providing strength for outdoor settings.

Nature, Seasons, and the Spirit of Vendemmia

The name Vendemmia refers to the grape harvest in Italy, a season tied to the land and the year’s weather. Grapes symbolize abundance, the turning of the seasons, and the pleasures of shared wine at table. In classical and later European art, grape crowns often appear on figures linked to nature, festivity, and the rhythm of agricultural life.

Placed on a garden wall, this classical wall planter becomes a small tribute to that cycle. Each change of planting—spring flowers, summer vines, autumn foliage—echoes the passing seasons in Tuscany’s hillsides and vineyards.
