Pileated Woodpecker
A red‑crested icon for your wild corner.
North America’s largest woodpecker, the Pileated, chisels crisp rectangle holes hunting carpenter ants and leaves forests full of swooping drama. Our silhouette channels that energy into a clean, modern form that looks incredible on trunks and posts. Corten steel keeps the edge sharp while the patina deepens with the seasons—no paint, no fuss, just presence.

AS SEEN IN
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.
