Outdoor park square green space glowing stainless steel dandelion sculpture
A stainless steel dandelion sculpture is designed for an outdoor park square, where its delicate form and reflective surface interact with sunlight and green space.

The production time is 25 to 30 days, with transport taking 15 to 20 days after that.

Problems It Solves
What It Fixes on the Line
- A park square that lacks a visual anchor despite being open and paved
- A space where a figurative piece is needed but a large or complex form is impractical
- A design that requires a natural shape but must withstand outdoor conditions
- A commission with a reference image but no technical drawing, requiring fabrication from visual input
- A need for a reflective surface that changes with the time of day and weather, without requiring maintenance
Technical Features
How It Is Built
- Hollow shell formed from stainless steel plate over a mould, shaped to mimic a dandelion head
- Welds ground and polished to blend with the surface, ensuring no visible seams
- 304 or 316 stainless steel body depending on exposure conditions
- Mirror polish applied to the entire surface, enhancing reflection and visual presence
- Custom diameter available beyond the listed 60 cm, 80 cm, and 100 cm sizes
Materials
Body Materials and Where Each One Suits
- 304 stainless steel for general outdoor use in parks and urban green spaces
- 316 stainless steel for sites near the coast or where winter de-icing salts are used
- Mirror polish that reflects the surrounding environment, including sky, trees, and people
- Hollow construction that reduces weight while maintaining structural integrity
- Stainless steel that resists rust and does not require repainting or coating
Manufacturing Process
How the Part Is Made
- Scheme design against the park space, considering scale, light, and surrounding planting
- Small model created and scaled up, with internal support structure designed in parallel
- Plaster mould taken from the model to shape the stainless steel shell
- Steel plate forged to the mould and ground repeatedly to achieve the final form
- Surface mirror polished to ensure a continuous reflective finish
- Welded assembly and final finish applied before packing for delivery
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, not left proud or raised
- Repeated grinding is part of the published method to ensure surface continuity
- 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 in diameter
- Mirror polish, brushed finish, or painting available depending on the site context
- 304 or 316 stainless steel selected based on environmental exposure
- Ordered from a photograph or a drawing supplied by the customer
- Base and fixing detail designed to suit the installation site and wind load
Comparison
How It Compares With the Alternatives
| A painted steel dandelion | Painted mild steel is cheaper but requires repainting; stainless holds its finish and resists corrosion |
|---|---|
| A fiberglass dandelion | Fiberglass is lighter and cheaper at large sizes but cannot be mirror polished and is less durable outdoors |
| A corten steel dandelion | Corten changes over time with weathering; this stainless version maintains a consistent reflective surface |
| A solid metal sculpture | Solid construction increases weight and cost; this hollow design reduces weight for easier installation |
Use Guide
Fitting and Running It
- Choose the diameter based on the park square’s scale, not the catalogue size
- Place the sculpture where it has something to reflect: sky, trees, or open green space
- Ensure the base and fixing are sized for wind load, especially at larger diameters
- Clean the mirror surface with water and a soft cloth; avoid abrasives that damage the polish
- Specify 316 stainless steel if the park is near the coast or experiences winter salting
- Plan 25 to 30 days production plus 15 to 20 days transport from the installation date
