Description

A duet of boldness and harmony.

Our Pair of Magpies celebrates one of Australia's most beloved and misunderstood birds. Known for their melodic carolling and surprising smarts, Magpies are strong, social birds often seen foraging in pairs.

This silhouette captures two birds in natural form, mid-conversation, mid-call, or mid-plotting who knows what. It’s a symbol of resilience and optimism — perfect for homes that have come through challenges or just want to start each day with a little song.

Striking scale... 38cm high × 29cm wide, approx. 800g
Flat-packed large box... 39cm × 34cm × 1cm
Fast dispatch... same-day shipping on weekday orders before 12pm
Australian made... crafted in a local family-owned factory
All-season durability... 3mm Corten® steel with natural patina
Easy to place... tap into timber, soil or potted planters

Place where birds gather and stories begin.

  1. Select a wide perch — a timber beam, post, or fence line.
  2. Hold slightly forward-facing for a more natural stance.
  3. Tap firmly into place with a mallet or hammer.
  4. Frame with native shrubs or tall grass to echo their habitat.

Top Tip: Perfect placed near a morning coffee spot — Magpies love dawn.

Are the magpies attached together?
Yes — it’s a single silhouette featuring two birds in design harmony.

Why are magpies used as a symbol of joy?
Their carolling is linked to sunrise and new beginnings. They also bond strongly with mates and family.

Is this a good memorial piece?
Many choose it for that reason — it’s gentle, bold, and quietly moving.

Can I install it on a rural property?
Definitely. It works beautifully on posts, gates, and bushland edges.

Will the colour change over time?
Yes — the patina deepens into rich browns and reds as it weathers.

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.
