Materials
Body Materials and Where Each One Suits
- #304 stainless steel for general outdoor use in urban or sheltered environments
- #316 stainless steel for coastal or high-salt exposure where corrosion resistance is critical
- Corten steel for a natural weathering effect that develops over time
- Mirror finish to reflect the surrounding space with clarity and precision
- Brushed finishing to reduce glare and provide a subtle, textured surface
- Painting to introduce colour or match a specific design scheme
Manufacturing Process
How the Part Is Made
- Scheme design developed against the courtyard environment, considering scale, light, and context
- Small model created and scaled up to determine form and internal support structure
- Plaster mould taken from the model to guide metal forming
- Metal plate forged over the mould and ground repeatedly to shape the shell
- Surface treated with mirror polish, brushed finish, or paint after forming
- Welded assembly completed on site to ensure the joint is finished seamlessly
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 finished surface
- Repeated grinding applied before surface treatment to ensure smoothness
- Wooden case packing protects the surface during transit and delivery
Customization
What Can Be Changed to Suit You
- Any size to specification, with no standard dimensions listed
- Choice of material: #304, #316 stainless steel, or corten steel
- Surface finish: mirror, brushed, or painted, all applied from the same base shell
- Built from a photograph or drawing provided by the customer
- Base and fixing details designed in coordination with the final installation site
Comparison
How It Compares With the Alternatives
| A painted mild steel sculpture | Painted mild steel is cheaper initially but requires repainting every few years; stainless and corten maintain their appearance with minimal upkeep |
|---|---|
| A fiberglass sculpture | Fiberglass is lighter and less expensive at large sizes but cannot achieve a mirror finish and is more prone to damage in outdoor conditions |
| A solid metal sculpture | Solid construction increases weight and cost; this hollow form reduces installed weight while maintaining visual impact |
| A corten steel sculpture with no finish | Corten develops a rusted patina over time; this piece offers a controlled, stable surface that does not change unless painted |
Use Guide
Fitting and Running It
- Determine the sculpture’s size based on the courtyard’s proportions, not on catalogue dimensions
- Place the sculpture where it has something to reflect: sky, trees, or architectural features
- Ensure the foundation and fixing system are sized for wind load, especially at larger diameters
- Clean mirror surfaces with water and a soft cloth; avoid abrasives that damage the polish
- Choose #316 stainless steel if the courtyard is near a coastal area or exposed to de-icing salts
- Plan 25 to 30 days for production, plus sea freight and on-site installation time
