Style With

A black silhouette illustration of Pūteketeke's Friend—a person in a suit and glasses, smiling and shrugging next to a cane and tail or flame—captures the premium metal art style on a plain light background.
THE STORY

A place of its own.

Give the silhouette a clear backdrop and a spot you pass often. The light changes around the steel, making the place you choose part of the piece.

MATERIAL & CARE

Steel that changes with the seasons.

Corten weathering steel starts gray and develops a natural orange-brown rust patina outdoors. Rain, drying and exposure change the color and pace of weathering. Rust runoff can mark pale paving, walls and pots, so choose the location with that in mind.

INSTALLATION

A little company for your bird.

Hook the clip-on securely behind a compatible Metalbird or onto a stable display edge. Check that it cannot slip and keep rusty runoff away from surfaces that could stain. The main Pūteketeke bird is sold separately.

READY TO GIVE

Someone in mind.

Arrives in an A6 branded envelope, ready to slip into a larger parcel or give on its own.
