- Polished surface holds its appearance without fading or needing repainting
- Wooden crate with inner plastic or foam protection ensures safe delivery
Application Scenarios
Where It Is Installed
- A private garden where a single sculptural form must define the visual centre
- A public park entrance with no existing landmark, needing a modern abstract piece
- A residential courtyard that requires a contemporary art object without figurative content
- A landscape design where the sculpture must reflect planting, water or architectural elements
- A commercial garden space where the sculpture serves as a visual anchor between buildings
Who It Is For
Buyers Who Specify It
- Landscape architects designing a modern garden with a sculptural element
- Private homeowners commissioning a unique art piece for a garden or terrace
- Property developers adding a contemporary feature to a residential or mixed-use scheme
- Art consultants sourcing a non-figurative metal sculpture for a public installation
- Garden designers integrating a reflective object into a minimalist or modernist layout
Problems It Solves
What It Fixes on the Line
- A garden that lacks a visual anchor and reads as incomplete or unstructured
- A site where a figurative sculpture would clash with the modern design language
- A need for a durable, low-maintenance art piece that won’t degrade in outdoor conditions
- A project with a reference image but no technical drawing, requiring fabrication from visual input
- A space that needs a sculpture of a specific scale, not available in standard off-the-shelf sizes
Technical Features
How It Is Built
- Hollow shell formed from two hemispheres over a mould, then welded together
- Weld joint ground and polished to be invisible on the finished surface
- 304 or 316 stainless steel body selected based on environmental exposure
- Mirror polish applied after welding to ensure a continuous reflective surface
- Custom diameter as standard, with no extra charge for non-standard sizes
Materials
Body Materials and Where Each One Suits
- 304 stainless steel for general outdoor use in non-coastal or low-salt environments
- 316 stainless steel for locations exposed to moisture, coastal air or winter de-icing
- Mirror polish that reflects the immediate surroundings with high clarity
- Hollow construction that reduces weight while maintaining structural integrity
- Stainless steel’s resistance to corrosion and high temperatures ensures long-term stability
Manufacturing Process
How the Part Is Made
- Scheme design developed in context with the garden or public space
- Small-scale model created and scaled up to full size with internal support planned
- Plaster mould taken from the model to form the hemispheres
- Steel plate forged to the mould and ground repeatedly to build the shell
- Surface polished to mirror finish after welding and final shaping
- Welded assembly and installation detail coordinated with the site foundation
Quality Control
What Is Checked Before It Ships
- The company states it runs its own professional QC team
- Welds are ground and polished to be invisible on the final surface
- Repeated grinding before polishing is part of the published method
- Inner plastic or foam protection inside the wooden crate prevents surface damage
Customization
What Can Be Changed to Suit You
- Any diameter to specification; the company states spheres from 25 mm to 10 m
- Mirror polish as standard, with no option to change to brushed or painted
- 304 or 316 stainless steel selected based on site exposure
- Ordered from a photograph or a drawing supplied by the customer

Comparison
How It Compares With the Alternatives
| A painted steel sculpture | Painted mild steel is cheaper initially but requires repainting every few years; stainless steel maintains its finish permanently |
|---|---|
| A bronze sculpture | Bronze develops a patina over time, which may not suit a modern garden; stainless steel retains its original appearance |
| A corten steel sculpture | Corten is chosen for its weathered, organic look; this mirror polished piece is chosen for a clean, reflective surface |
| A fiberglass sculpture | Fiberglass is lighter and cheaper at large sizes but cannot be polished to a mirror finish and is less durable outdoors |
Use Guide
Fitting and Running It
- Choose the diameter based on the scale of the garden, not on a standard catalogue size
- Place the sculpture where it has something to reflect: sky, trees, water, or architecture
- Ensure the foundation is sized to resist wind load, especially at larger diameters
- Clean the mirror surface with water and a soft cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners or pads
- Specify 316 stainless steel if the garden is near a coastal area or experiences winter salting
- Plan 25 to 30 days for production plus 15 to 20 days for transport from the date the garden must be completed
