Patinated Iron Deer | Set of 2

Style: English Estate Revival Material: Heavy Cast Iron Finish: Weathered Rust & Verdigris Dimensions: L39.5" x W16.5" x H32.75"

Garden gnomes are for the unserious. Plastic flamingos are a cry for help. If you intend to curate a landscape of consequence, you require something with permanence.

This exquisite pair—one regal stag, one serene doe—evokes the silent nobility of a private English parkland. Cast in heavy, solid iron, they possess the kind of physical gravity that anchors a garden. They do not look like they were bought; they look like they were inherited along with the property.

The finish is a complex interplay of rust-brown and grey-green patina, mimicking the "foundry" look of 19th-century statuary. They are designed to age, not to remain pristine.

The Curator’s Notes:

• The Horticultural Advantage: Unlike their biological counterparts, this pair will never trample your hydrangeas or devour your prize-winning hostas. They contribute to the beauty of the garden without consuming it.
• The Scale: At nearly 40 inches long, these are substantial figures. They are best deployed flanking a driveway, nestled in tall grass, or holding court on a stone patio.
• The Aging Process: They arrive with a weathered finish, but nature will continue the work. As they are exposed to the elements, the iron will deepen in character, proving that—unlike most things—they actually get better with neglect.
• The Composition: The pairing of the alert stag and the grazing doe creates a naturalistic vignette that brings a sense of calm to the chaotic outdoors.
