Comparison
How It Compares With the Alternatives
| A painted steel sculpture | Painted steel requires repainting every few years; corten steel develops a stable rust layer that protects the metal and needs no maintenance |
|---|---|
| A mirror polished stainless steel sphere | Polished steel reflects the environment and stands out; corten steel blends into the garden and ages with the site |
| A bronze sculpture | Bronze develops a green patina but is more expensive and heavier; corten steel is lighter and more cost-effective for large garden forms |
| A fiberglass sculpture | Fiberglass is lightweight and can be painted, but it lacks the durability and natural character of corten steel in outdoor gardens |
Use Guide
Fitting and Running It
- Choose the size based on the garden space, not a catalogue standard
- Place the sculpture where it can be seen from multiple angles and where it interacts with planting
- Ensure the base is fixed securely in soil or concrete to resist wind and movement
- Do not clean or treat the surface; the rust layer forms naturally and protects the metal
- Avoid applying sealants or coatings, as they interfere with the natural weathering process
- Plan 25 to 30 days production plus 15 to 20 days transport before the installation date
