Kissing Cardinals
The little things that say plenty.
During courtship, Cardinals may pass food from beak to beak. It looks rather like a kiss. We’ve kept that moment in steel, with two birds facing each other on one branch.
An anniversary gift doesn’t have to be grand to feel personal. Give these two a place outside a shared window, beside a deck chair, or wherever you tend to stop together.
Steel that changes with the seasons
Corten is weathering steel. Outdoors, its surface develops a rust-coloured patina. The colour and rate of change vary with exposure, rain and drying. Your bird is meant to change with the seasons.
Leave the steel unpainted to enjoy the changing finish. Choose a spot where rust run-off won’t mark pale paving, walls or other surfaces.
Choose a perch. Tap it in.
Choose a sturdy wooden fence post, deck post or timber planter. Position the integrated mounting spike against the wood and tap it in gently with a hammer until the bird sits securely. Avoid striking the bird itself.
Choose a spot you have permission to use. Keep the spike out of children’s reach. A clear background helps the silhouette and cut detail stand out.
A small box with someone in mind.
For an anniversary, a wedding, or the person who still makes you put the kettle on for two. Flat gift packaging is included; the note is yours to write.
