What customers say
The design is the clear winner, captivating buyers with its serene, reflective pose that instantly elevates any outdoor space. Customers consistently praise the statue's detailed craftsmanship and the quality of the resin finish, noting it looks far more expensive than its price point suggests. While some wish for slightly more weight for stability, the statue is widely regarded as a charming and durable garden accent that brings genuine joy and aesthetic value to patios and flowerbeds.
Know before you buy
At 10 pounds, the statue has a solid base, but it may be susceptible to tipping in high-wind areas. If you live in an exposed location, we recommend placing it on a level surface or using a small amount of adhesive or a ground anchor to ensure stability.
The designer resin is durable and weather-resistant, requiring very little upkeep. To keep the finish looking fresh, simply wipe it down with a damp cloth or rinse it with a garden hose to remove dust and debris.
While the designer resin is designed for outdoor use, extreme freeze-thaw cycles can eventually cause stress to the material. For the longest lifespan, we recommend bringing the statue indoors or into a shed during harsh winter months.
Standing at 19.5 inches tall and 16.5 inches wide, this piece is roughly the size of a small child sitting down. It is well-suited for a garden bed, a patio corner, or as a focal point on a pedestal.
The statue is cast in designer resin, which is a hollow-cast material. This allows it to be lightweight enough to move easily while maintaining the detailed, heavy appearance of natural stone.
