Description

Not a bird? True. Still a total banger.

The Metalbat breaks all the rules—and we love it for that. It's our only non-bird silhouette, released once a year to haunt (or nap in) your garden just in time for Halloween.

Crafted from premium Corten® steel and designed to weather beautifully over time, this little upside-down legend brings serious character to porches, trees, posts, and beams. Whether you're building a haunted yard scene or gifting something fang-tastically unique, the Metalbat nails the vibe: moody, adorable, and a little bit mischief-y.

Hang it solo or as part of our Boo-tiful Bundle with the Owl and Crow. Either way, this limited-run bat won’t stick around forever—it vanishes after Halloween, just like a proper nocturnal legend.

Join the Metalbird Global Art Project, and add a bit of seasonal magic to your backyard with a gesture that lasts far beyond the candy.

Unexpected charm... An upside-down bat silhouette that adds spooky fun or year-round quirk
Striking scale... 7 inches high by 10.5 inches wide (excl. branch), approx. 8oz
Easy gifting... Ships in a sleek, standard letter-size box: 11" x 8" x ¼"
Fast shipping... Same-day dispatch on weekday orders before 2pm
Built to outlast the season... Made from 1/8-inch Corten® steel that weathers into a beautiful patina
No-fuss install... Tap into wood or a post with a hammer—no nails, no screws

This one’s more hang than hammer. But it’s still easy as.

Pick your perch...find a beam, tree branch, porch frame, or wooden post. Think up high for extra spooky impact.

Hold it upside-down...position your Metalbat on a slight downward angle—the way real bats roost.

Hammer it in...tap the thickest part of the stake with a hammer or mallet until secure. No screws. No stress.

Step back and enjoy the eeriness...It’s hanging. It’s haunting. It’s Halloween-ready!

Top Tip: Hang it near a porch light or in a shadowy nook—the kind of spot that makes people double-take after dark.

Is the Metalbat just for Halloween?
Yes—it's a seasonal special. The Metalbat only crawls out once a year. Once Halloween's over, it's gone. (No pressure.)

What’s it made from?
Solid Corten® steel—the kind that weathers into a gorgeous rusty patina but lasts forever outdoors. Cute and tough.

Where should I install it?
Up high works best—like under porch beams, tree branches, or eaves. Just tap it in on a slight angle using a hammer. Done.

Is it actually giftable?
Absolutely. It comes flat-packed in a standard letter-size box—easy to post, wrap, or leave as a mysterious surprise on a doorstep.

Will it survive spooky storms and rain?
Yes—it thrives outside. Corten® steel is built for weather. Your bat will develop character, not corrosion.

Each Metalbird is crafted from Corten® Steel, a premium, weathering steel made to last.

When it meets the elements, it doesn’t rust like your old BBQ. It transforms.

That change you’re seeing? That’s patina. A tough, protective outer layer that seals the steel, adds character, and preserves your bird for decades.

This isn’t paint. It’s nature’s way of ageing gracefully.

The Patina Process:

At first, you’ll notice bright orange spots (we call this the teenage phase). Soon enough, the whole bird will turn a bold orange, slowly shifting into deep burnt umber. Eventually, it settles into a moody charcoal that feels like it’s always belonged.

The Result? A piece of industrial art with a heartbeat. No peeling, no fading, just a bird that gets better with age.
