Our Approach
At Bromsgrove Garden, we merge traditional English garden aesthetics with modern design to create meticulously crafted ornaments and accessories, including planters, urns, water features, and more. By collaborating closely with professional landscape and interior designers, we deliver bespoke pieces that seamlessly harmonize with their surroundings, adding timeless elegance to any space.
For a quarter of a century Bromsgrove has provided fine garden ornaments to landscape designers throughout North America. Bromsgrove makes its ornaments using traditional casting techniques as well as incorporating modern technologies where appropriate. The company has marketed its planters to professional landscape designers, not through retail distributors.
Lead has been used in the manufacture of garden ornaments since the 1600s. Before that, it proved its reliability as a roofing material in such structures as the Tower of London and Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris. It lasts a very long time, for at least four hundred years. Lead develops a natural patina when exposed to the elements. This patina is a very thin layer of lead salts that act as a barrier to corrosion. It is also gives its beloved silvery grey color.
