Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Due to its considerable weight (approximately 80 kg), unpacking and positioning the ornament should ideally be a two-person task. Ensure the chosen location is level and can support the weight. The integral plinth provides stability, but placing it on soft ground might require a more solid base.

Compatibility: This ornament is suitable for all year-round outdoor use. It is compatible with various garden styles, from traditional to contemporary, and can also be placed indoors in spacious areas like conservatories or large hallways.

Care: To maintain its appearance, simply clean the ornament with a damp cloth as needed. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these could potentially damage the finish. Its durable construction means minimal ongoing maintenance is required.
