Wren and Chicks
A familiar sort of busy.
A wren leans towards two waiting chicks on an oak-leaf branch. The tiny open beaks make the scene easy to recognise. Cut together as one steel silhouette, this family needs a single solid timber perch. A thoughtful choice for a parent, grandparent or the person who is always looking after everyone else.
Steel that changes with the seasons
Corten is unpainted weathering steel. Outdoors, its surface develops a rust-coloured patina. Colour and timing depend on the weather and exposure. The dark finish in a photograph is not a permanent painted colour. Allow for rusty runoff, which can mark pale paving, pots and nearby surfaces.
Choose a perch. Tap it in.
Choose sound, solid timber with room around the silhouette. Hold the branch firmly and tap the thick end of the integrated mounting spike into the wood with a hammer or mallet until secure. Avoid striking the bird itself. Hard timber may need a pilot hole. Use a fence post or wooden planter if you do not want to fit it to a living tree; check our tree-care guidance before using a living tree.
Packed flat. Someone in mind.
Choose a bird for someone who will enjoy finding it a place. One connected Wren and Chicks silhouette in a flat gift box, approximately 30 × 21 × 1 cm.
