Q&A answers generated with AI assistance.
Can this outdoor artwork be placed in direct sunlight or rain?
While this piece is durable and designed for outdoor environments, it is specifically intended for covered patio spaces. To preserve the vibrant orange and amber finish, it should not be placed in areas with direct exposure to water or intense, direct sunlight. Hanging it under a porch, lanai, or deep eave will help prevent fading and ensure the handcrafted details last for years.
How do I maintain and protect metal outdoor artwork from the elements?
To keep your artwork looking its best, our care guide recommends applying a premium wax, such as a high-quality car or boat wax, before hanging it outdoors. It is important to use a wax that does not contain cleaners, as "cleaner/waxes" can damage the delicate surface finish. For continued protection against moisture and air, reapply the wax every 6 to 12 months.
What is the best material for outdoor wall sculptures to prevent rust?

This sculpture is handcrafted from stainless steel, a material prized for its high resistance to rust and corrosion compared to standard steel. This ensures that the intricate butterfly design maintains its structural integrity and aesthetic appeal even in more humid or coastal environments.
What is the benefit of a handcrafted stainless steel wall accent?
