What This Piece Is
A custom animal sculpture in 304 or 316 stainless steel, shaped as a rabbit and built to your specified size rather than a fixed catalogue dimension. The form is fabricated as a welded shell over an internal frame, then ground and polished to eliminate visible seams. Because stainless steel resists corrosion and high temperature, the sculpture can be installed permanently in outdoor gardens, plazas, or hotel entrances without protective covering. Kapur builds it from your photo, drawing or 3D file, and inspects it at every stage from production through to loading on the vessel.
Key Benefits
- Made to your exact dimensions instead of a fixed catalogue size so it fits the site’s scale and sightlines
- 304 or 316 stainless steel selected based on the installation environment rather than defaulting to one grade
- Mirror or brushed finish carried across all surfaces so welds are not visible under daylight or artificial light
- Corrosion and high temperature resistance allow permanent outdoor installation without seasonal removal
- Built from your photo, drawing or 3D file so an architect’s concept can be produced directly
- Inspected at each production stage with digital photos sent before shipment
Buyers and Specifiers
- Landscape architects specifying a custom animal sculpture for a residential or public project
- Property and hotel developers commissioning an entrance feature on a fixed build schedule
- Public art consultants managing a themed commission to a fixed budget
- Interior designers needing a large animal form scaled to an existing atrium or void
- Sculpture galleries and importers sourcing custom metal animal sculptures from China
What It Fixes
- Fixed catalogue sizes rarely suit a real site so the piece is made to your dimension
- Painted steel fades and needs recoating while stainless steel keeps its finish outdoors
- Welded seams on curved forms often show under light so joints are ground back and repolished
- Buyers cannot inspect an overseas factory so digital photos are supplied at each stage
- Large sculptures are damaged in transit so each piece ships in a wooden crate with foam or plastic lining
Where This Sculpture Is Installed
Garden entrances and residential courtyard focal points where the animal form adds character
Public plazas and civic spaces where a whimsical animal sculpture engages visitors
Hotel lobbies and atriums with a modern, light-reflective feature near reception
Shopping mall interior courtyards and roof gardens that need a sculptural element
Sculpture parks and municipal art commissions with a theme-based animal series
Landscape masterplans requiring a custom animal form integrated into the design
How It Is Built
- Welded shell construction over an internal steel frame for structural stability
- Grade selected between 304 and 316 according to inland or coastal exposure
- Surface ground and polished after welding so seam lines are removed
- Overall height, curvature and shape set by the customer rather than fixed
- Any animal or figurative form reproduced from a supplied sample drawing or reference photo
- Base plate and anchoring detail prepared for the installation surface
Materials
- 304 stainless steel for inland gardens, plazas and interior installations
- 316 stainless steel where coastal salt air or de-icing salt is a factor
- Internal steel frame carrying the load behind the visible shell
- Material grade confirmed with you before cutting rather than assumed

- Mirror polished or brushed surface finish
- Coloured or coated variants on request
- Base plate and fixing detail adapted to your foundation
- OEM and ODM orders accepted
Ordering and Care
- Send the site dimensions, viewing distance and a reference photo or drawing when you enquire
- Confirm 304 or 316 based on distance to the sea and exposure to road salt
- Prepare a level concrete foundation matched to the base plate drawing supplied
- Allow crane access on the installation day for a tall piece
- Wash the surface with water and a soft cloth and avoid abrasive pads on a mirror finish
- Rinse more often at coastal sites to stop salt deposits marking the polish
How It Compares With Other Options
An honest read on the trade-offs, so the material decision is made before fabrication starts.
| Corten weathering steel sculpture | Corten develops a stable rust patina that suits planting and natural settings, while stainless steel reflects light and stays bright in urban or modern environments |
|---|---|
| Fiberglass sculpture | Fiberglass is lighter and cheaper to ship and takes any colour, but it will not last as long outdoors as stainless steel |
| Bronze sculpture | Bronze suits figurative and classical work and develops a patina, while stainless steel suits clean modern forms and requires less maintenance |
| Painted carbon steel | Painted steel costs less initially but needs recoating, whereas stainless steel keeps its finish without a paint cycle |

Questions About This Sculpture
Can you make this in a size that is not listed?
Yes. Size is custom on this piece, and both curvature and height are made to your drawing. Send your dimensions and we will confirm feasibility and price.
How long does production and shipping take?
Production takes 25-30 days and ocean transport a further 15-20 days. Some items are held in stock, which shortens the production window.
Should I choose 304 or 316 stainless steel?
304 covers most inland gardens, plazas and interiors. 316 is the safer choice near the coast or where de-icing salt is used, because it resists chloride corrosion better.
Can you work from my own design?
Yes. Orders are accepted from your photo or drawing, and OEM and ODM work is welcome. Send a 3D file, a sketch or detail pictures and our design team will work from it.
How is the sculpture packed for sea freight?
Each piece ships in an outer standard wooden crate with plastic or foam lining inside to protect the polished surface during handling.
Can I inspect the sculpture before it ships?
Yes. Our QC team inspects at all stages up to loading on the vessel and supplies digital pictures, and your own QC team is welcome to check quality in our factory.
Do you supply a certificate or load calculation?
Certification and structural documentation are confirmed per project. Tell us what your local authority requires when you send the enquiry.
