Know before you buy
Yes, it is cast in durable designer resin, which is designed to withstand typical outdoor weather conditions. However, we recommend bringing it indoors or covering it during extreme winter freezes to preserve the hand-painted finish.
Minimal maintenance is needed. You can keep it looking fresh by occasionally wiping it down with a damp cloth to remove dust or garden debris.
The statue is made of high-quality resin, which provides a solid weight for stability on flat surfaces. If you live in an area with particularly high winds, you may want to place it in a sheltered spot or use a small amount of adhesive putty to secure it to a stone or pedestal.
Each piece is individually hand-painted with outdoor-safe finishes. While the paint is designed to hold up well, placing the statue in a spot that avoids direct, harsh afternoon sun will help prevent long-term fading.
Absolutely. While it is designed for garden use, its whimsical aesthetic makes it a great decorative accent for indoor bookshelves, sunrooms, or meditation spaces.
