We love the friendly, orange-beaked Blackbird, coming out to sing after the rain, wrestling worms from the ground, raising everyone’s spirits with its chirpy mood. Did you know they can actually hear a worm moving just underground? So now when you see the Blackbird hopping around the lawn you’ll know why. The males are, as you’d expect, black but the females are actually a dark brown. The ‘four-and-twenty blackbirds baked in a pie’ apparently refers to something Anne Boleyn served up to Henry VIII when they were courting. But don’t let that put you off.

Our birds are designed with 3mm CorTen steel to form a protective patina that deepens and strengthens with the seasons. This patina will deepen in shade over the years until it reaches a deep brown/charcoal black hue.
This self-sealing aspect of CorTen steel provides a quality guarantee of up to 100 years, ensuring that our product lasts a lifetime and remains completely corrosion resistent.
What might initially resemble generic rust is simply the air and water-tight patina forming over a six month period, so don’t panic! Your Metalbird is doing exactly what it’s been designed to do, and this patina will protect the steel from any further damage and disintegration.
CorTen steel does not require any treatments, oils or chemical additives and is therefore extremely environmentally friendly.
We have a flat £3.99 shipping across all of the UK plus free shipping when you spend over £75. International shipping is unavailable from Britain however check out our other Metalbird stores in New Zealand, USA, Canada, Australia and Europe for more local shipping options — Anywhere else in the world, head to metalbird.com!

MADE FROM PREMIUM CORTEN STEEL
Corten Steel or ‘Weathering Steel’ is used in high-end exterior architecture, for good reason. Exposed to the elements, within weeks it develops a patina that seals the steel and preserves it for decades. It also leaves a beautiful even colouring that will get darker over the years.
