How stable is the fixing system?

Troubleshooting
Art piece is wobbly or unstable.
Ensure the spikes are fully inserted into the ground. If the ground is very hard, try moistening it or using a gentle tapping motion with a rubber mallet. Check that the ground is level around the base.
Rusting is uneven or not developing as expected.
The development of patina is a natural process affected by environmental conditions. Consistent exposure to moisture will promote rusting. If you desire a more uniform look, consider applying a clear metal sealant after the desired patina has been achieved, though this is not required for the product's function.
Spikes are difficult to insert into the ground.
Gently tap the top of the art piece with a rubber mallet. If the ground is exceptionally hard or stony, consider choosing a different location or slightly loosening the soil around the spike points before insertion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The garden art comes fully assembled. To install, simply push the double spikes firmly into the ground at your desired location. Ensure the ground is soft enough to allow the spikes to penetrate securely. For very hard ground, consider moistening the area first or using a rubber mallet gently.
Compatibility: This product is designed for outdoor use and is compatible with most garden soil types. Ensure the chosen location can accommodate the spike depth for maximum stability.
Care: The product features a bare metal finish that is designed to age and develop a natural patina, including rust. This is an intended feature and part of its rustic charm. No specific care is required to achieve this effect. If you wish to slow down or alter the rusting process, you could apply a metal sealant, but this is not necessary for its intended aesthetic.
