Know before you buy
While the designer resin construction is durable, the faux antique stone finish may weather over time if exposed to harsh, direct elements. To preserve the finish, we recommend bringing it indoors or placing it in a sheltered area during extreme winter conditions.
The statue stands nearly four feet tall and weighs 16 pounds. While it is stable on a flat, level surface, you may want to consider placing it on a weighted base or in a protected corner if you live in an area with high winds.
No, the statue arrives as a single, solid piece. There is no assembly required, so it is ready to be placed as a focal point in your space immediately.
You can keep the statue looking its best by gently dusting it with a soft, dry cloth. For a deeper clean, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water, avoiding any abrasive scrubbers or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
At 16 pounds, it has a moderate weight that works well for indoor displays or sheltered outdoor spots. If you plan to place it in a high-traffic area or an open garden, you may want to ensure it is positioned on a secure, level foundation.
