These special ones have two styles in all the adobe colors and patterns. The one shown here is a full wall's width.

What makes them so special is the wall niches filled with mix and match decorative plants and pottery. The center space is left for you to put whatever you want in it!

Design Hint: Put a window or lamp behind these and you can light them up!
