What customers say
Customers are overwhelmingly impressed by the statue's striking design and imposing presence. The intricate details, especially the powerful wings and musculature, consistently exceed expectations, establishing this piece as a dramatic focal point for any garden or entryway.

Consumers feel the aesthetic impact far outweighs the price point.
Know before you buy
Yes, it is cast in durable designer resin, which is weather-resistant. However, to maintain the hand-painted faux bronze finish over many years, we recommend placing it in a sheltered area or applying a clear UV-resistant sealant if it will be exposed to direct, harsh sunlight.
The statue weighs 6 pounds and has a base measuring 10.5 by 12.5 inches. While it is sturdy enough for most garden settings, you may want to place it on a level surface or use a small amount of adhesive putty if you live in an area with high winds.
The finish is hand-painted to highlight the intricate textures of the feathers and fur, giving it a metallic appearance that mimics traditional bronze. While it is clearly resin upon close inspection, it provides a sophisticated, classical look from a distance.
Absolutely. Its 18-inch height makes it an excellent focal point for a fireplace mantel, bookshelf, or entryway console. The resin material is lightweight enough to move easily, and the felt-friendly base ensures it won't scratch your furniture.
Simply wipe it down with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust or garden debris. Avoid using abrasive scrubbers or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the hand-painted finish.
