Q: What is the difference between this standing pig and the small sitting pig in the catalog?
The size, weight, and posture. The small sitting pig (19x8xH15cm, 470g) is compact and playful in a resting posture — ideal for a ledge, a pot, or an indoor arrangement. This large standing pig (25x18xH24cm, 1.1kg) is more imposing and dynamic in an active posture — designed to stand out in a garden, on a terrace, or in a large-scale farm composition. Together, they create the most complete and natural pig composition in the catalog.
Q: Can this pig stay in the outdoor garden all year round?
Yes, without restriction. The technical sheet explicitly mentions the outdoor garden. The polyresin is tested down to -20 °C and treated for UV resistance. Its weight (1.1kg) and large footprint (25x18cm) ensure perfect stability outdoors all year round.
Q: Is the standing pig depicted as eating or simply standing?
In a calm moving posture — head slightly tilted forward as if sniffing its surroundings, body horizontally well balanced on its four legs. This is not a static or rigid posture but that of an animal in peaceful movement in its natural habitat — the most lively and realistic posture in the pig range.
Q: Can this large pig be paired with the small sitting pig for a composition?
This is the most recommended composition. The large standing (H24cm) + the small sitting (H15cm) positioned a few centimeters apart create a very natural scene — the size difference (H24 vs H15cm) and posture difference (standing vs sitting) is marked enough to suggest two different animals or two generations on the same farm.
Q : Is it a good gift for someone who is moving or settling into a new home?
The pig is the quintessential housewarming gift in many traditions — a symbol of prosperity and good fortune in a new home. This large standing pig, with its assertive presence and quality finish, is a memorable and original housewarming gift, far beyond a simple trinket. To be given alone or accompanied by the small sitting pig.
