Rusting and care information
This steel wildlife sculpture is supplied in its original unrusted state, giving you the choice to leave it outdoors to develop a natural rusted finish or to paint or seal it if you prefer to keep the bare steel look.
Please note: if you wish to keep your sculpture in its unrusted state, apply a suitable metal paint, sealant or matt lacquer to the bare steel and keep it in a very dry location.
When exposed to British weather, the surface will begin to rust naturally. You can speed up the process by lightly spraying the sculpture with water every few days, or by applying a diluted mixture of 1 part household vinegar to 20 parts water. The rust forms on the surface of the steel, creating the distinctive rustic garden art finish.
Delivery information
Each metal sculpture is made to order and hand finished. Please allow up to 10 working days from order to delivery, especially if purchasing as a gift.

*Cast statues can only be delivered within the UK
We aim to have most of our dispatched within 5-7 working days, but due to the nature of some of our products being made to order and also being hand made by craftspeople it can sometimes take a few days more on certain items. Please note on all pebbles and slate items the turn around time is 10-14 days.
PLEASE NOTE PERSONALISED ITEMS AND BUSY PERIODS SUCH AS CHRISTMAS, MOTHERS DAY ETC AND NEW PRODUCT LAUNCHES CAN BE A LITTLE LONGER DUE TO THE VOLUME OF ORDERS
But most products dispatched within 5-7 working days which we are very proud of considering most items are manufactured once the order has been processed. Our small company prides itself on using UK suppliers and making fabulous UK products, who work hard and love what they do!
Although hand making something may take that extra day or two longer than buying something imported and sitting in a warehouse we feel the quality and uniqueness of the product will far outweigh that extra couple of sleeps!
We pride ourselves on getting orders to you on time which is in our world pretty fast considering it did not exist before your order :)
Thank You!
