Coastal charm with serious beak appeal.

If you’ve ever seen a Pelican glide effortlessly across the surf or perch proudly near the shore, you know just how striking these birds are. With their massive beaks and easy grace, they're a living icon of Australia’s coast.

Our Pelican silhouette captures the distinct shape and noble posture of this incredible bird — known for having the longest beak of any bird in the world. It adds a bold focal point to beachy gardens, coastal homes, or lakefront properties.

Crafted from 3mm Corten® steel, it develops a beautiful, weathered finish over time. Whether you’re a beach lover, bird enthusiast, or just appreciate a design with presence, this one makes a splash.

Top Tip: If your soil is loose, place a stone behind the stake for extra bracing.

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.
