It is a custom-built form made from 304 or 316 stainless steel, with a hollow shell and a surface treated with paint to suit the environment. The listed size is custom size, and like all pieces in this catalogue, it is made to any diameter or height on request. The body resists corrosion and high temperatures, making it suitable for long-term outdoor exposure.

Materials
Body Materials and Where Each One Suits
- 304 stainless steel for general outdoor use in urban and garden settings
- 316 stainless steel for sites with high humidity, coastal exposure, or winter de-icing
- Paint finish applied after shaping to match a specific colour scheme or design intent
- Hollow construction reduces weight while maintaining strength at large scales
- Corrosion resistance of stainless steel ensures long-term performance in outdoor conditions
Manufacturing Process
How the Part Is Made
- Scheme design developed against the site, including form, scale, and colour
- Small model created and scaled up to match the intended installation size
- Plaster mould taken from the model to guide the shaping of the metal shell
- Plate forged to the mould and shaped into the final abstract form
- Surface ground and polished before painting to ensure a smooth base
- Paint applied in multiple coats to achieve full coverage and durability
- Final assembly and packing in a wooden crate with inner plastic or foam
Quality Control
What Is Checked Before It Ships
- The company states it runs its own professional QC team
- Welds are ground and finished to reduce visibility before painting
- Paint is applied evenly and inspected for coverage and consistency
- Packing includes inner plastic or foam to protect the painted surface during transit
- Final inspection before packing ensures the sculpture meets the customer’s specification
Customization
What Can Be Changed to Suit You

Comparison
How It Compares With the Alternatives
| A mirror polished stainless steel sculpture | A painted surface avoids reflections that can distract in busy urban settings; mirror finish is chosen when the environment is the subject, while paint is used for colour and identity |
|---|---|
| A fibreglass sculpture | Fibreglass is lighter and cheaper but cannot be painted to match high-end finishes; stainless steel holds paint better and lasts longer outdoors |
| A corten steel sculpture | Corten changes over time with weathering; painted stainless steel maintains its original appearance, making it better for consistent branding or design |
| A bronze sculpture | Bronze is heavier and more expensive; painted stainless steel offers similar visual impact at lower cost and with better resistance to outdoor elements |
Use Guide
Fitting and Running It
- Choose the size based on the space it will occupy, not on a standard catalogue dimension
- Ensure the painted finish is specified in the correct colour for the surrounding environment
- Plan for 25 to 30 days of production and 15 to 20 days of transport when scheduling the installation
- Avoid abrasive cleaners on the painted surface; use water and a soft cloth for maintenance
- Specify 316 stainless steel if the site is near the coast or exposed to road salt
- Confirm base and fixing details early to match the installation site’s structural requirements
