Place your bird family in a peaceful garden nook.

Pick a sheltered wooden spot for best effect.
Angle slightly downwards for a natural perched pose.
Tap in with a hammer or mallet using light pressure.

Top Tip: Display where the weather will accelerate the patina for a rustic finish.

What kind of imperfections might it have?
Common examples are surface scratches, small dents, or edge roughness — see example photos.

Does this change the durability?
Not at all. The steel will still weather and last like any full-price Metalbird.

Can I return this?
No. Seconds are final sale and non-returnable.

Will the imperfections show?
Most fade completely once the patina develops — and some people prefer the look!

Is it a good gift?
Yes, especially for practical bird lovers who value character and sustainability.

AS SEEN IN

Each Metalbird is crafted from Corten® Steel, a premium, weathering steel made to last.

When it meets the elements, it doesn’t rust like your old BBQ. It transforms.

That change you’re seeing? That’s patina. A tough, protective outer layer that seals the steel, adds character, and preserves your bird for decades.

This isn’t paint. It’s nature’s way of ageing gracefully.

The Patina Process:

At first, you’ll notice bright orange spots (we call this the teenage phase). Soon enough, the whole bird will turn a bold orange, slowly shifting into deep burnt umber. Eventually, it settles into a moody charcoal that feels like it’s always belonged.

The Result? A piece of industrial art with a heartbeat. No peeling, no fading, just a bird that gets better with age.
