My friend Larry collects things. Wonderful things. Like old worn out work boots that he then planted flowers in, about twenty years ago. Anyhow, he owns a fence company and was called to tear down an old iron fence around a cemetery. When he saw the gate, he asked what they wanted to do with it, and they said "throw it out." So Larry, recognizing this gate for the gem it is, brought it home and installed it in his garden! Isn't this wonderful? Please click on the image to see more detail and better color.
Larry is my kind of man! I picked up an old iron headboard off the street years ago for my garden. Not quite as elaborate, but fun just the same.
