Large Horned Owl

Yes, cast stone is a dense, weather-resistant material designed to withstand outdoor elements. While it is durable, we recommend placing it on a level, solid surface to prevent any potential shifting during extreme freeze-thaw cycles.

No, the statue is designed to be freestanding. Weighing 57 pounds, it has enough natural heft to remain stable on a patio, deck, or garden bed without the need for additional anchors.

Cast stone is a natural material, and while the finish is designed for outdoor longevity, it may develop a subtle patina or soften in color over many years of sun and rain exposure. This natural weathering process is often considered a desirable trait that adds to the sculpture's traditional aesthetic.

While you can place it on soil, we recommend setting it on a flat stone, paver, or gravel base. This prevents the base from sinking into soft ground over time and keeps the bottom of the sculpture clean and dry.

You can easily clean the owl using a soft-bristled brush and a mixture of mild soap and water. Avoid using high-pressure power washers or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the stone finish.
