The pretty fanned tail of Fantail, or New Zealand’s Piwakawaka, gives it amazing acrobatic abilities, like changing direction instantly and flipping upside down to nab a bug under a leaf. When you’re hiking in the bush or working in the garden, this little insectivore is there, flitting around you with a cheery ‘cheet cheet’, friendly as hell, to catch the tiny bugs you’re serving on a plate. Grab one now and add a touch of the exotic to your backyard.

Our Fantail is:

 27cm high by 13cm wide approximately 300g

Crafted from 3mm Corten steel and designed to last a lifetime
Easy to install holding on a downwards angle simply tap the thickest end of the stake with a hammer or mallet until secure

        Our birds are designed with 3mm CorTen steel to form a protective patina that deepens and strengthens with the seasons. This patina will deepen in shade over the years until it reaches a deep brown/charcoal black hue.

        This self-sealing aspect of CorTen steel provides a quality guarantee of up to 100 years, ensuring that our product lasts a lifetime and remains completely corrosion resistent.

        What might initially resemble generic rust is simply the air and water-tight patina forming over a six month period, so don’t panic! Your Metalbird is doing exactly what it’s been designed to do, and this patina will protect the steel from any further damage and disintegration.

        CorTen steel does not require any treatments, oils or chemical additives and is therefore extremely environmentally friendly.

        We have a flat £3.99 shipping across all of the UK plus free shipping when you spend over £75. International shipping is unavailable from Britain however check out our other Metalbird stores in New Zealand, USA, Canada, Australia and Europe for more local shipping options — Anywhere else in the world, head to metalbird.com!

        MADE FROM PREMIUM CORTEN STEEL

        Corten Steel or ‘Weathering Steel’ is used in high-end exterior architecture, for good reason. Exposed to the elements, within weeks it develops a patina that seals the steel and preserves it for decades. It also leaves a beautiful even colouring that will get darker over the years.
