Corten Steel Sculpture
People Tree Corten Steel Sculpture Garden Decoration New Products
A corten steel sculpture in the form of a human tree is designed for a garden or public space, where it stands as a large-scale abstract artwork. The piece is composed of human figures in varied poses, interlocked and reaching toward a shared crown, forming a fragile, organic structure that suggests both connection and vulnerability. The listed size range is 3 to 9 meters, and like most items in this catalogue, it is made to any size within that range on request. The body is formed from corten steel, which develops a stable rust patina over time, and the piece is packed in an outer wooden crate with inner plastic or foam protection. Production time is 25 to 30 days, followed by 15 to 20 days of transport.

- 3 to 9 meters as listed, or any size within that range to fit the site
- Interlocking human forms suggest unity and fragility, suitable for themes of community and survival
- Stable rust finish means no repainting or recoating is needed, unlike painted steel
- Wooden crate with internal plastic or foam packing protects the surface during long-distance shipping
Application Scenarios
Where It Is Installed

Materials
Body Materials and Where Each One Suits
- Corten steel, which develops a stable rust patina over time and requires no further treatment
- 304 or 316 stainless steel as listed in the specs, though the piece is specifically corten
- Rust patina that forms naturally and protects the underlying metal from further corrosion
- Plastic or foam used inside the wooden crate to prevent surface contact during transit
- Wooden crate as the outer packaging for structural protection during shipping
Manufacturing Process
How the Part Is Made
- Scheme design based on the site and intended meaning, with the human tree form developed as a concept
- Small model created to test proportions and interlocking poses before full-scale fabrication
- Corten steel plates cut and shaped to form individual human figures and connecting elements
- Welded together in sections, then assembled into the final structure
- Surface left to weather naturally, developing the characteristic rust patina over weeks to months
- Packed in an outer wooden crate with inner plastic or foam for safe transport
Quality Control
What Is Checked Before It Ships
- The company states it runs its own professional QC team
- Welds are checked for integrity and smoothness before final surface treatment
- The structure is inspected for balance and stability before packing
- Packing method ensures no surface contact during transit, protecting the corten finish
- Final inspection before dispatch confirms the piece is ready for shipping
Customization
What Can Be Changed to Suit You
- Any height between 3 and 9 meters, or custom size beyond that range
- Human figures can be adjusted in pose or number to suit the site or concept
- Base and fixing detail can be designed to match the installation site
- Ordered from a photograph or a drawing supplied by the customer
- All details are negotiable and customized to provide a better result
Comparison
How It Compares With the Alternatives
| A painted steel sculpture | Painted steel requires repainting every few years; corten develops a stable rust layer that protects the metal and needs no maintenance after initial weathering |
|---|---|
| A mirror polished stainless steel sphere | A mirror sphere reflects the environment constantly; this corten sculpture has a static, textured surface that changes only with light and weather, creating a different kind of presence |
| A bronze sculpture | Bronze develops a green patina over time and is more expensive; corten is more cost-effective and develops a rust finish that is consistent with industrial and natural themes |
| A fiberglass sculpture | Fiberglass is lighter and cheaper but cannot be formed into the complex interlocking human structure of this piece and lacks the durability of corten steel |
Use Guide
Fitting and Running It
- Choose a size between 3 and 9 meters based on the garden or plaza scale, not on a standard catalogue option
- Install the sculpture where it can be viewed from multiple angles, as the human tree form changes with perspective
- Allow space around the base for the sculpture to stand independently, as the form is fragile in appearance
- Do not clean the corten surface with abrasives or chemicals; let the patina develop naturally
- Specify the exact height and base detail during ordering, as the structure is built to size
- Plan 25 to 30 days for production and 15 to 20 days for transport from the order date
