Add a touch of fun and native character to your home or garden with this striking Australian Cockatoo Metal Art Silhouette. Cockatoos are known for their big personalities, and this piece captures that iconic, playful spirit perfectly, making it a fantastic conversation starter wherever it lands.
Dimensions: 22.5 cm wide x 37 cm high—the perfect size to make a statement without overwhelming your space.
Material: Crafted entirely from 100% Australian weathering steel.
One of the most exciting things about this piece is that it is a living artwork! Your cockatoo will arrive either freshly cut (showing raw steel) or with the beautiful, earthy beginnings of a rust patina, or potentially already complete with the patina.
You can let nature take its course and watch it develop a rich, protective rustic coating over time in the elements. Alternatively, if you love the way it looks right out of the box or want to halt the rusting process at a specific stage, you can easily seal it with a rust inhibitor to lock in that exact finish.
The best part about this silhouette is how versatile and fun it is to place. Because of its sturdy design and ideal size, you can get really creative with where this cheeky bird roosts:
In the Garden: Tap it gently into the trunk or a thick branch of a backyard tree for a brilliant natural surprise.
On the Fence: Mount it along a timber fence line or retaining wall to break up the space with some rustic art.
Patio & Entertaining Areas: Attach it to a pergola post, balcony railing, or near your outdoor BBQ area to keep your guests company.
Front and Center: Make your mailbox or front gate stand out with a distinctively Australian welcome.
Indoors: Don't limit it to the outdoors! Treat it with a rust inhibitor and mount it on an interior wall for a striking industrial-meets-nature focal point.
Whether you're buying it for yourself or as a unique gift for a bird lover, finding the perfect perch for this cockatoo is half the fun!
