Know before you buy
Yes, the statue weighs 29 pounds, which provides a stable base for most garden or patio settings. However, if you live in an area with extreme wind, you may want to place it in a sheltered corner or on a level surface to ensure it remains secure.
The statue is crafted from durable designer resin, which is weather-resistant. While it is designed for outdoor use, we recommend bringing it indoors or covering it during harsh winter months to preserve the faux stone finish over the long term.
No assembly is required. The statue arrives as a single, solid piece, so it is ready to be placed in your garden or on your patio immediately upon arrival.
Yes, this piece is specifically designed to be compatible with the Design Toscano Corinthian Pillar Collection if you wish to add height and a more formal look to your display.
You can keep the statue looking its best by gently wiping it down with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers, as these can damage the faux stone finish.
