Garden sculptures

Metal garden sculpture – your animal, weatherproof.

A Metalsculpta garden sculpture is 0.6 to 2 m tall, made of 1.5 mm Corten or stainless steel and stays outside all year. You design your animal online from a photo and receive it fully welded or as a kit from Greiz, Germany.

Rust that protects.

Corten steel forms a dense patina in the air. It protects the sheet and grows darker and richer over the years – no care needed.

“Up to 1 m, a figure works by a flower bed or on the terrace. From 1.5 m it becomes the centre of the garden.”

Set up safely.

Every figure stands on a base plate you fix to the ground [fixing to follow]. For large figures we recommend a small foundation [details to follow].

Two steels. Both made for outdoors.

Corten

Rust brown and alive. The patina protects the steel – and grows more beautiful over the years. For gardens, wood and stone.

Stainless

Brushed silver and rust-free. Stays as it is – in the lobby, the living room, on the modern house.

What you want to know

Will a Corten garden sculpture rust through?

No. The patina protects the 1.5 mm steel from deep corrosion. Avoid standing water at the base plate.

How big should a garden sculpture be?

Up to 1 m for beds and terraces, 1.5 to 2 m as an eye-catcher on a lawn or by a pond.

Does Corten stain paving stones?

In the first [period to follow], rain can wash out rust particles. Place the figure on gravel or a base.

Can the sculpture stay outside in winter?

Yes, both materials are made for year-round display.

How is the sculpture delivered?

Fully welded and safely packed [shipping method to follow], or as a kit with numbered parts.

Which animal should it be?
