Product Information
Full details
The LV Bespoke Fun Snail garden feature is an ideal choice for homeowners looking to add a whimsical and artistic touch to their outdoor landscapes. Crafted from raw steel, this snail sculpture offers a unique, evolving aesthetic as it develops a natural rusted patina over time. While it serves as a charming focal point for any garden bed or patio, users should be prepared for the material to naturally change color due to environmental exposure.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Will the snail continue to rust forever?
The steel will develop a natural protective layer of oxidation, which slows down the rusting process significantly after the initial phase.
Can I paint the raw steel?
While it is designed to rust, you can use high-quality metal primer and exterior paint if you prefer to maintain a specific color.
Is the snail frost-resistant?
Yes, the raw steel construction is durable enough to handle standard outdoor temperature fluctuations, including frost.
What are the exact dimensions?
The feature stands at 48 cm high, 10 cm wide, and 26 cm deep.
Does it come with the eyes already attached?
The marble eyes are typically provided as a customizable element; ensure they are firmly set upon placement.
Troubleshooting
Rust staining on patio surface
Place a barrier such as a decorative stone, treated wood coaster, or rubber mat underneath the base.
Marble eyes are loose or missing
Ensure they are properly seated in the designated sockets; if they become dislodged by wind, apply a small amount of clear outdoor-safe adhesive.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your Fun Snail is straightforward: simply place the feature on a level surface such as a rock, paver, or directly onto firm soil. If placing the snail on a wooden deck or light-colored stone patio, consider using a non-slip rubber mat or a clear protective sealer underneath to prevent the natural rust runoff from staining the surface. No assembly is required for the steel body, though you may need to secure or insert the customizable marble eyes according to the provided instructions. To maintain the structural integrity, periodically clear away debris like fallen leaves or heavy mulch from the base to encourage even weathering.
