What a beautiful bird. Incredibly smart, loyal and a sight to behold. Surprisingly the Blue Jay is actually Brown! The structure of its feathers is such that when light hits them, blue light is refracted while other light colours are absorbed making them look blue. Don’t believe us? If you come across a Blue Jay feather, try back lighting it. Without direct lights the blue is no longer reflected, and the feather appears brown. Fortunately, you won’t have that debate with our beautiful bird. Its distinctive silhouette will provide delight in any garden.
Our Blue Jay is:
Our birds are designed with 1/8-inch CorTen steel to form a protective patina that deepens and strengthens with the seasons. This patina will deepen in shade over the years until it reaches a deep brown/charcoal black hue.
This self-sealing aspect of CorTen steel provides a quality guarantee of up to 100 years, ensuring that our product lasts a lifetime and remains completely corrosion resistent.
What might initially resemble generic rust is simply the air and water-tight patina forming over a six month period, so don’t panic! Your Metalbird is doing exactly what it’s been designed to do, and this patina will protect the steel from any further damage and disintegration.
CorTen steel does not require any treatments, oils or chemical additives and is therefore extremely environmentally friendly.
