Q: Is the base made of real wood or polyresin?
In high-density polyresin (polystone) wood effect finish — the same material as the peacock itself, with a surface treatment that faithfully reproduces the textures, knots, and warm tones of a real tree stump. The advantage is a uniform resistance of the whole: no risk of rot, moisture-related cracking, or differential discoloration between the bird and its support. The two elements behave the same outdoors.
Q: Can this sculpture stay in an outdoor garden all year round?
Yes — balcony & terrace and outdoor garden. The polyresin is tested down to -20 °C and the anti-UV treatment specifically protects the intense blues and greens of the plumage, the colors most sensitive to fading without protection. Its weight (18kg) and wide base (stump 85x54cm) ensure excellent stability.
Q: Does the depicted peacock have its tail spread or folded?
The tail is spread — the peacock is in its maximum display posture, the one that reveals all the splendor of its plumage. It is the most spectacular and photographed posture of the bird, and it is precisely this posture that this sculpture immortalizes. The tail spread backward explains that the depth of the sculpture (54cm) is less than its total width when viewed from the front.
Q: Is the peacock a symbol in different cultures?
Yes — the peacock is a strong symbol in many traditions. In Indian culture, it is the national bird and a symbol of grace, beauty, and benevolence. In Greek culture, it was associated with Hera, the goddess of marriage. In Christian tradition, it symbolizes immortality and renewal. In most cultures, it represents beauty, pride, and distinction — very positive values that make the peacock a cherished gift on important occasions.
