- Property developers adding art features to high-end residential or mixed-use gardens
- Art consultants sourcing custom animal sculptures for garden installations
- Garden designers working with a client who wants a unique, non-traditional animal form
Problems It Solves
What It Fixes on the Line

Technical Features
How It Is Built
- Constructed as a hollow shell, formed from plate metal over a mould
- Two hemispheres welded together, with the joint ground and polished to blend with the surface
- 304 or 316 stainless steel body selected based on environmental exposure
- Surface finish applied after welding—mirror, brushed or painted from the same base
- Custom size as standard, not as a special order, with no fixed size listed
Materials
Body Materials and Where Each One Suits
- 304 stainless steel for general outdoor garden use
- 316 stainless steel for gardens in coastal or high-salt environments
- Mirror polish to reflect the garden, sky and movement around it
- Brushed finishing to reduce glare and hide minor handling marks
- Painting where a colour scheme requires a non-reflective surface
Manufacturing Process
How the Part Is Made
- Scheme design developed against the garden space, including form, scale and finish
- Small clay or model made and scaled up to the final size with internal support planned
- Plaster mould taken from the model to shape the metal shell
- Plate forged to the mould and ground repeatedly to build the shell thickness
- Surface polished, brushed or sprayed to final finish
- Welded assembly on site, allowing the joint to be finished out after installation
Quality Control
What Is Checked Before It Ships
- The company states it runs its own professional QC team
- Welds between hemispheres are ground and polished to be invisible on the finished surface
- Repeated grinding before surface treatment ensures a smooth base for polishing
- Inner plastic or foam padding protects the surface during transit inside the wooden crate
Customization
What Can Be Changed to Suit You
- Any size to specification, with no standard size listed
- Mirror, brushed or painted finish applied after welding
- 304 or 316 stainless steel selected based on garden location and exposure
- Built from a customer’s photograph or technical drawing
- Base and fixing detail designed to suit garden conditions and wind load
Comparison
How It Compares With the Alternatives
| A painted mild steel insect sculpture | Painted steel is cheaper initially but requires repainting every few years; stainless holds its finish permanently |
|---|---|
| A fiberglass insect sculpture | Fiberglass is lighter and cheaper at large sizes but cannot be polished to a mirror and is better suited for indoor use |
| A corten steel insect sculpture | Corten is chosen when the surface is meant to weather and change; this piece is made to maintain a consistent finish |
| A bronze insect sculpture | Bronze develops a patina over time; stainless steel maintains its original appearance, ideal for modern gardens |
Use Guide
Fitting and Running It
- Choose the size based on the garden’s scale, not a catalogue standard
- Place the sculpture where it has something to reflect—sky, foliage, water or paving
- Use 316 stainless steel if the garden is near the coast or exposed to de-icing salts
- Avoid abrasive cleaners on the surface; use water and a soft cloth for maintenance
- Plan 25 to 30 days for production and 15 to 20 days for transport from the order date
- Confirm the base and fixing detail with the project team to suit garden conditions
