    When you order free samples, you can see the color and texture first-hand. Place the samples in the right lighting to determine, with confidence, the correct option for you and your client.

Only Modern Elite Planter and concrete fire pit color samples come in the same product color and texture. PurePots color samples come on a heavy plastic that emulates the texture of Fiberglass Planters.
