It is intended for permanent installation in public or semi-public environments where reflection, form, and durability are essential.

Key Benefits
What This Nozzle Gives You
- A custom size ensures the sculpture fits precisely within the intended space, avoiding mismatched proportions
- Hollow construction reduces weight while maintaining structural integrity at large scales
- #304 for general outdoor use or #316 where exposure to salt or de-icing chemicals is expected
- Mirror, brushed, or painted finishes allow the piece to reflect or contrast with its surroundings as needed
- Factory Direct and Door to Door Delivery reduces handling risk and ensures polished surfaces arrive intact
- Production time of 35 days allows for planning within standard project timelines
Application Scenarios
Where It Is Installed
- A museum courtyard where a single sculptural form acts as a visual anchor between buildings
- An urban garden square where the flamingo’s form introduces movement and lightness to a formal layout
- A cinema or theatre forecourt where the sculpture becomes a landmark before the entrance
- A public art installation in a city garden where the piece must withstand weather and public interaction
- A cultural complex where the flamingo’s shape adds a narrative or whimsical element to the architectural language

Technical Features
How It Is Built
- Hollow body constructed from two hemispherical shells formed over a mould and welded together
- Weld joint ground and polished to be invisible on the finished surface
- #304 or #316 stainless steel selected based on environmental exposure
- Surface finish applied to the same shell—mirror, brushed, or painted—ensuring consistency
- Custom size as standard, with no fixed dimensions in the catalogue
- Production time of 35 days, consistent across similar custom pieces
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 sites exposed to coastal air, road salt, or de-icing chemicals
- Mirror finish for strong reflection of sky, landscape, and people
- Brushed finishing to reduce glare and hide minor handling marks
- Painting where the design calls for colour rather than reflective surface
Manufacturing Process
How the Part Is Made
- Scheme design developed against the site, including form, scale, and finish
- Small clay model created and scaled up with internal support structure designed in parallel
- Plaster mould taken from the model for forging the shell
- Steel plate forged to the mould and ground repeatedly to achieve the final shape
- Surface treated with mirror polish, brushed finish, or paint as specified
- Welded assembly completed on site to ensure the joint is finished cleanly
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 before surface treatment is part of the published method
- Wooden case packing protects the surface during transit
Customization
What Can Be Changed to Suit You
- Mirror, brushed, or painted finish applied to the same shell
- #304 or #316 stainless steel body selected based on site exposure
- Orders accepted from a photograph or a drawing supplied by the customer
- Base and fixing detail designed in coordination with the installation site
Comparison
How It Compares With the Alternatives
| A painted mild steel flamingo | Painted mild steel is cheaper upfront but requires repainting every few years; stainless steel maintains its finish permanently |
|---|---|
| A fibreglass flamingo | Fibreglass is lighter and cheaper at large sizes but cannot be polished to a mirror finish and is less durable in outdoor conditions |
| A corten steel flamingo | Corten is chosen for its weathered, rusted appearance over time; this piece is chosen for a clean, reflective surface that does not change |
| A standard off-the-shelf animal sculpture | Standard models come in fixed sizes that may not fit the space; this piece is made to custom size on request |
Use Guide
Fitting and Running It
- Choose the size based on the space it will occupy, not on a standard catalogue dimension
- Place the sculpture where it has something to reflect—sky, water, planting, or building façade
- Ensure the foundation and fixing are designed for wind load, especially at larger sizes
- Clean mirror surfaces with water and a soft cloth; avoid abrasives that damage the polish
- Specify #316 stainless steel if the site is near the coast or uses road salt in winter
- Plan 35 days of production time plus sea freight from the date the installation must be complete
