Tree of Life column with family quote (57 cm) made of Corten steel – planting column with tree motif

Roots that hold: This 57 cm tall decorative column made of genuine Corten steel features a laser-cut tree of life and above it a quote that perfectly sums up what family is all about. With its removable plant bowl (35 × 35 cm), it becomes a flower column for outdoor use – as a garden feature in the front yard, a planting column at the entrance, or a decorative statement piece indoors. A gift that lasts.

The Tree of Life has always stood for growth, roots and connection: the branches are the family members who go their own way – the roots are the home that holds everyone together. That’s exactly why the Tree of Life column is a popular gift for weddings, births, Mother’s Day or housewarmings.

💡 Prefer the classic family quote on its own? The same column is also available without the tree motif – with the saying “The first thing a person encounters in life …”: ➜ To the family column with quote (57 cm)

🛠️ Material & workmanship

• Material: genuine Corten steel, 1 mm – sturdy and durable
• Tree of life and quote are laser-cut – every column is unique
• handcrafted in our workshop in Bavaria – Made in Germany
• Corten steel is a weather-resistant structural steel (used in bridges and facades) – extremely durable
• the decorative rust patina makes every piece unique

🌿 Weatherproof & durable

Corten steel forms a protective barrier layer beneath the visible rust that seals the material and prevents further corrosion. The column is frost-proof, weather-resistant and low-maintenance, can stay outside all year round and only gains character over time.

💡 Planting tip

The removable bowl can be conveniently planted separately and easily stored in winter. For healthy planting, we recommend a drainage layer of gravel so the drainage slots remain clear. Colorful seasonal flowers look especially beautiful above the calm tree motif – like a blooming treetop.

🎁 For which occasion?

With tree of life and family quote, this pillar is a gift with depth – for a wedding, a birth, Mother’s Day or Father’s Day, a housewarming in a new home or for Christmas for the whole family.
