Timeless Piece of Art
Supports Bird Conservation
As Seen In
The vulture has been unfairly hated on for centuries, and we’re here to set the record straight! A dignified and striking bird of prey, vultures play a vital role in the ecosystem, preventing the spread of disease, eliminating waste and normalising pattern baldness. They’re also extremely at risk, with half of all vulture species heavily endangered. While we have no vultures in New Zealand, our recent collaboration with Auckland Zoo has seen five custom metalbird vultures installed in their amazing Africa Safari Track (check it out!) and now your garden can feature one too!
A perfect gift for anyone that prefers their steak rare, can pull off a cape, or someone that doesn’t get the love they deserve, frankly.
Our White-Headed Vulture is:
✓ 37cm high by 32cm wide approximately 700g
✓ Easy to send our regular boxes are standard XL size
✓ Same day dispatch on orders placed before 2pm on weekdays
✓ Made locally in a family-owned factory, right here in NZ
✓ Crafted from 3mm Corten steel and designed to last a lifetime
✓ Easy to install holding on a downwards angle simply tap the thickest end of the stake with a hammer or mallet until secure
Our birds are designed with 3mm 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.

MADE FROM PREMIUM CORTEN STEEL
Corten Steel or ‘Weathering Steel’ is used in high-end exterior architecture, for good reason. Exposed to the elements, within weeks it develops a patina that seals the steel and preserves it for decades. It also leaves a beautiful even colouring that will get darker over the years.
