Q: Does the fawn really have white spots, like in reality?
Yes — it is one of the most important details of naturalistic precision in this sculpture. The fawn (Capreolus capreolus, the European roe deer) has characteristic white spots on its fawn coat during the first months of life — an adaptation for camouflage in the vegetation. These spots are hand-painted and immediately distinguish the young from the adult, giving the composition its entire narrative dimension and naturalistic credibility.
Q: What is the difference between this duo and the large doe alone?
The composition and the narrative dimension. The large doe alone (45x24xH37 cm, 3.2 kg) represents the adult in all its individual elegance — a powerful and serene garden sculpture. This doe and fawn duo (40x31xH25 cm, 3.2 kg) represents a relationship — the protective mother and her young — and tells something much more emotional. Same weight, wider and shorter composition, narrative vs sculptural register. Both can coexist in the same garden.
Q: Can this sculpture stay outside all year round, including in winter?
Yes, without restriction. The high-density polyresin is tested down to -20 °C and the UV treatment protects the mother's fawn coat and the fawn's white spots from fading. Its weight (3.2 kg) and wide center of gravity ensure perfect stability outdoors. No sheltering necessary.
Q: Is this sculpture also suitable for indoors?
Absolutely — although the official usage mentions balcony & terrace and garden, the high-density polyresin is perfectly suitable for indoors. Its low (H25 cm) and horizontal silhouette allows it to sit on the floor in an entryway, at the foot of a staircase, or in a corner of the living room without dominating the space. The natural fawn and white tones blend into warm decors.
Q : Is it a good gift for someone who loves nature and the forest?
It is the strongest gift in the entire Garden Nice wild animals range. The doe and her fawn evoke something universal — maternal tenderness, the softness of the forest, a preserved natural world. It is a piece that invariably generates an emotional reaction at first sight, which settles permanently in a garden and often becomes its signature piece. A memorable gift for any occasion.
