Meet our Robin Pair — a celebration of seasonal love in the British garden. While robins don’t mate for life, many return to the same partner every spring, just like old sweethearts.
These two are forever perched together, crafted from 3mm Corten® steel and designed to rust into a warm, natural finish. Whether you're honouring a relationship or simply celebrating nature, this piece brings charm and meaning to any space.
✓ Sweet silhouette of two robins in love ✓ 14cm high × 25cm wide — Approx. 300g ✓ Ships in A4 box — 30cm × 21cm × 1cm ✓ Handmade in the UK — Family workshop quality ✓ Crafted from weathering Corten® steel — Lasts beautifully outdoors ✓ Easy to install — A few taps with a hammer does the job
Perch this perfect pair in five easy steps:
1. Choose a surface that’s sturdy and wooden — Think fence rails, gateposts, or sleepers. 2. Angle the stake slightly downward — This gives a realistic perched effect. 3. Tap gently into place — Use a mallet or hammer. Pre-drill hardwoods if needed. 4. Check it’s firm — A soft tap test is all it takes. 5. Smile. You’ve just installed love.
Top Tip: Nestle them among climbing roses or lavender for a heart-melting display.

Can I leave it out in winter?

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.

I’m a repeat buyer but first time I’ve bought for myself. Love it & great delivery.
Bought as a gift last Christmas. Put it up 10 days ago. One bird fell off while gently tapping in. Other robin is rusting after 10 days outside. A very expensive disappointment!
This is one I bought a while ago, it is now nicely weathered, and I am very pleased with it.
I have now bought the robins as a Birthday gift for February!
The Perfect Gift
Finding something for my 93-year-old Aunty to celebrate her birthday is difficult. Flowers, Chocolates, and Boxes of Biscuits are all done to death. I was recommended to look at Metalbird and was so pleased I did. She was ecstatic and demanded immediate installation. A very happy Aunt.
Bought two different boys for my husband for Christmas, really pleased with them the only thing I can complain about was I asked for a message to be put into both of them & it wasn’t in with them.
Perfect
I bought these as a gift for my husband. They are perfect the quality is fantastic. They look great on the fence. I would definitely recommend them.
Love my metal birds
Love this It is on the top of my bird feeder I can see it when I look out of the window. So unusual. I got it for a Xmas present and was not disappointed.
Beautiful piece
There was some challenges around delivery of my order due to the royal mail strike but customer services dealt with the issue well & the piece is well made and well packaged. Thank you for resolving my issue.

Bad communication
The robin pair arrived eventually no correspondence from company even after several emails it just arrived , not sure it’s as strong as I though it would be for the money ,but I have it now and will enjoy
Beautiful
I have admired Metal Birds for a long time and wasn't disappointed. I ordered the Robins for my uncle to represent his Ma & Pa, and he was thrilled with the gift. Arrived well wrapped and high quality—the perfect gift for yourself or your loved ones.
Excellent product and service
I love the Robin Pair that I bought. The quality is excellent and it is going to look great in my garden. There was an issue with the company the was due to deliver mine and it eventually got lost. I contacted metal bird and they replaced it no questions asked. Very happy
