tui on flax garden stake or wall art | corten | 90cm

A tui resting on a flax blade, cut as one piece and pushed straight into the garden. Slim enough to sit between plantings, tall enough to read from across the lawn.  Plus, this piece is incredibly versatile as it can be hung as wall art too - perfect on a fence.  

Tui are unique to New Zealand. Noisy, bold and rarely far from a flax flower, which is exactly where this one has landed.

Cut from New Zealand corten steel and hand finished in Auckland. Corten is a weathering steel, so it is meant to rust. The rust forms a protective skin on the outside while the steel underneath stays strong, and the piece only looks better as it ages.

Size: 90cm x 12.5cm. If inground, approximately 10cm goes into the ground, so it stands around 80cm tall.

Material: New Zealand corten weathering steel

Suitable for: Outdoors, on a fence, in a garden bed or a large pot

Installation: Screw to a wall or fence (use cut outs in the design) or push straight into the ground. No fixings required.
