A quiet water stop that pulls songbirds into the yard and holds its own as garden art
At a Glance
- Overall size: 19.69 in L x 19.69 in W x 23.23 in H
- Basin: 19.5 in wide and 4.25 in deep
- Build: 95% iron frame with a hand painted porcelain globe at the base
- Finish: Matte cobalt blue, distressed and powder coated
- Holds up to: 20 lb of water
- Assembly: Three pieces, hardware included
The iron is powder coated and finished by hand in a matte cobalt blue, then lightly distressed so it reads like a piece that has weathered a few seasons already. Bird and leaf details are worked into the frame, gracefully scrolled legs lift the basin, and a hand painted porcelain globe sits at the base as a small point of color. It stands freestanding on a patio, in a courtyard, or among the beds, and the iron shrugs off sun and rain.
Key Features
- Hand painted matte finish: The cobalt blue is painted and distressed by hand, so no two pieces look exactly alike and the color has real depth instead of a flat single coat.
- Cast bird and leaf detailing: Songbirds and foliage are worked right into the iron frame, which is what turns a plain water dish into something worth looking at even when the birds are away.
- Porcelain globe accent: A glazed porcelain globe, painted by hand, anchors the foot of the stand, a small ceramic touch that plays off the dark iron above it.
- Weather and rust resistant: The frame is powder coated under the paint, so it stays out through the seasons without streaking or flaking.
- Wide, shallow basin: The 19.5 in basin runs 4.25 in deep, shallow enough for small birds to bathe safely and wide enough to hold a real pool of water.
What's Included
The birdbath ships as three pieces with all the hardware you need: the basin, the scrolled iron stand, and the porcelain globe accent. Nothing else is required to put it together.
Before You Buy
- It arrives in three pieces and needs light assembly. The basin, stand, and globe join with the included hardware in a few minutes using common hand tools.
- The basin is 4.25 in deep. That suits small songbirds and keeps the water from going stagnant, so plan to top it up and refresh it often in warm weather.
- It stands 23 in tall and weighs about 4 lb. Light enough to reposition on your own, so anchor it or tuck it out of strong wind if your yard gets gusty.
Perfect For
- Drawing songbirds to a garden, patio, or courtyard
- Gardeners who want a working piece that also reads as sculpture
- Vintage and cottage style outdoor settings
- A freestanding focal point among the flower beds
Care & Use
- Empty and refresh the water every couple of days so it stays clean for the birds.
- Rinse the basin with a soft brush and plain water, and skip harsh cleaners that can dull the finish.
- In freezing weather, empty the basin and cover or store it so standing water does not crack the porcelain.
- Wipe the iron with a damp cloth and let it dry to keep the matte finish looking fresh.
