“Griaß Di” column (1 m) made of corten steel – Bavarian decorative rust column with edelweiss and planter bowl
A heartfelt greeting that lasts: “Griaß Di” – finely laser-cut into this 1-metre-tall, tapered column (32 × 32 → 22 × 22 cm), crowned with the Edelweiss, queen of the Alpine flowers. With an optional planter bowl up to Ø 60 cm, it becomes an outdoor flower column that welcomes your guests at the front door in true Bavarian style – crafted where people actually greet each other that way: in our workshop in Bavaria.
⭐ A piece of home – from the Upper Palatinate
“Griaß Di” and edelweiss: this column has Bavaria at heart – and that’s where it comes from. Welded, folded and rusted in our workshop in the Upper Palatinate. An authentic piece for everyone who loves their homeland – and a gift with a wink for everyone who misses it.

🛠️ Material & workmanship
- Material: genuine Corten steel – column and square bowls 1 mm, round bowls solid 1.5 mm
- Lettering and edelweiss 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
All bowls are removable, can be easily planted separately and are simple to store in winter. For healthy planting we recommend a drainage layer of gravel so that the drain hole or slots remain clear. Especially harmonious with the Alpine motif: gentian, silver thistle or – of course – edelweiss.
🎁 For which occasion?
The “Griaß-Di” column is the perfect gift for a housewarming, a birthday for all Bavaria lovers – and for everyone who wants a little piece of home by their front door, even when they live far away.
