About this piece

Hand-finished cast stone owl garden ornament with a suspicious side-eye expression and gold beak detail. 17 × 18 × 18 cm, approximately 2 kg; suitable for indoor or outdoor display.

The Little Critic is a cast stone owl garden ornament with a suspicious side-eye expression, a pale stone finish and a hand-painted gold beak.

It is a small, solid piece for garden shelves, patios, borders, steps, plant corners and indoor displays. The raised feather detail gives it texture from every angle, while the face does most of the talking.

Each one is cast and painted by hand in our small creative workshop in the Lake District. Small variations in finish are part of the piece.
