Item Description
This charming faux bois garden bridge, crafted from concrete, is a perfect example of decorative artistry inspired by nature. The faux bois technique, meaning “false wood” in French, originated in the mid-19th century, pioneered by French artisans like Joseph Monier. Designed to imitate the textures and appearance of natural wood, faux bois was often used in garden decor and furniture, offering a rustic look with the durability of concrete.
Dating from the early to mid-20th century, this bridge showcases the hand-painted surface and weathered patina typical of the technique, adding authenticity and charm. Ideal for creating an enchanting garden pathway or spanning a small pond, it combines aesthetic appeal with the resilience of concrete, making it a timeless addition to any outdoor space.
