Know before you buy
At 11 pounds, this statue is sturdy enough for most garden settings, but it may be susceptible to tipping in extremely high winds. If you live in a particularly gusty area, we recommend placing it on a flat, level surface or securing it to a base.
Yes, the high-quality designer resin is durable and weather-resistant. However, to maintain the faux antique stone finish for as long as possible, we suggest bringing it indoors or covering it during harsh winter conditions.
The lion statue is sold as a standalone piece. While it is designed to sit securely on most flat surfaces, optional stately plinths are available separately if you want to add height or a more formal look to your entryway.
You can easily clean the statue by wiping it down with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers, as these can damage the faux antique stone finish.
This product is sold as a single statue. If you intend to flank an entryway or garden gate, you will need to purchase two units.
