Animal Yard Statue

The sound of the ocean is one of the more soothing songs played by nature's harp. Whether crashing onto a rocky shore or softly swishing up onto a sandy beach, waves provide one of the most peaceful of background sounds. The repetitive, timeless quality of wave noise is made even better by a view of a vast, endless surface of water. The beautiful scene is accentuated by distant ships and gulls in graceful flight, and nearly every day ends with a gorgeous sunset. Add that to romantic walks on the beach and it's no wonder that so many of us would love to have a house on or near the beach.

If you are fortunate enough to live near the ocean or on a large lake, the experience only gets better by using decor appropriate for your seaside situation. One decoration that will add a perfect touch to any seaside home or business is the Ocean's Perch Pelican Statue. Two stately pelicans rest on dock pilings as they wait for the fishing boats to come back from the high seas. The scene is a common one on the rocky shores of southern California, on the sandy beaches of the Gulf of Mexico, and just about any bay in Florida. Even if you don't own a seaside home, this statue will make you feel like you are back at the beach.

Find this detailed pelican statue, dozens of realistic animal garden sculptures, and garden statuary for every situation at Design Toscano today.

The Asian-themed garden often plays host to bamboo (both living and sculpted forms), Koi ponds, and Buddha outdoor statues. There might also be a stunning Panda animal yard statue or even a Ninja Gnome but the most spectacular of Asian gardens usually showcase a bronze sculpture or two. Asian-themed sculptures tend to look more impressive and authentic when depicted in bronze because sculptures crafted from that ancient medium have adorned Chinese gardens for more than two thousand years.

The solid bronze Asian Dragon with Power Orb is one such spectacular sculpture. This writhing Asian water dragon is sculpted in the same style as classic dragons that adorn Chinese temples. The power orb is a modern touch but gives this beautiful bronze sculpture a magical, captivating appearance. Although it can be shown on its own, this fantastic, piped bronze sculpture is at its best when placed in a pond or fountain.

The Tranquil Buddha Statue is another stunning Asian-themed bronze sculpture. Carefully crafted in the traditional lost wax method, this Buddha statue is beautifully detailed and resembles many Buddha sculptures that grace temple grounds in Thailand and China. The peaceful, contented look on the face of this Buddha is timeless and inspirational.

Save on these fantastic bronze sculptures and hundreds of other statues for the backyard and the interior of your home and business at Design Toscano.

Each holiday has its own set of decorations but the winter holiday season is in a category of its own. The exterior of homes and businesses are decorated with wreaths, snowmen, and a dazzling array of colored light displays. The interior of the home sees garland on banisters, mistletoe above doorways, colored electric candles in the windows, and a decked out evergreen tree on display in the living room.

Some people go all out and others decorate very little for the winter holidays but it's the extra little touches that people will remember the most. This holiday season, one of the ways of making your party the most memorable one on the block is by decorating greenman sculptures. Convert woody, sinister faces like the Poison Oak Tree Sculpture and the Spirit of Nottingham Woods into much more benign characters by decorating them with elf hats, garland, and blinking lights.

Elf hats also work wonders for greenman statues meant for the walls of both garden and the interior of your home. Put them on the Somerset Greenman Statues to give them a jolly touch but don't expect anyone to go so far as giving them a kiss if you happen to crown these wall sculptures with a sprig of mistletoe!

Every business owner is aware of the essential role played by marketing in meeting goals and building the business. If you can afford it, marketing and advertising firms are hired to craft and place ads in the right places, email and social media campaigns are carried out, and you are always trying to think of new and better ways to reach your target market.

The most valuable marketing, though, comes from the customers themselves. When they have good things to say about your place to friends, family, and whomever else is willing to listen, their audience puts much more trust into what they say than even the best of your ads. In fact, as long as they say anything about your business (other than negative comments), they will be providing you with free, invaluable marketing.

An easy way to get lots of people talking and curious about your business is by using unique, unforgettable decor in your store or office. You can't go wrong with animals and showing realistic animal garden statues in the foyer or garden can help put your place on the map. Any detailed animal statues could give your business a marketing boost but people are much more likely to talk about grand scale statues like Zairen the Zebra or a giant Male Silverback Gorilla Statue.

Order these and other animal garden sculptures from now until December 12th and get 25% off the regular price!

Bigfoot has several names. In the southern states, this large, hairy bipedal creature is called the Skunk Ape. In Ohio, believers in Bigfoot claim that the "grassman" roams the oak woodlands of the Buckeye State. In the wild coniferous forests of the west, it goes by the name of Sasquatch and in Asian mountains, a similar furry giant is known as the Yeti. An enigma for sure and one that deserved to be immortalized as one of the more fantastic  animal garden statues.

The following are two reasons why it's worth it to buy a garden sculpture of Bigfoot:

• Gentle Giant: Despite Bigfoot's massive size and obvious strength, the scarcity of sightings indicate that it might be the most shy creature in the woods. As opposed to being threatening, an animal yard statue of Bigfoot fills the garden with mystery and enchantment.
• It's unique: While neighbors can claim that their backyard is inhabited by statues of pink flamingoes and garden gnomes, get a Bigfoot sculpture and you can show that your garden hosts one of the most unique and detailed sculptures in town.

Yet another reason for buying a Bigfoot Sculpture today is because you get a 20% discount as part of our Black Friday Weekend sale. This sale ends today, November 25th!

Statues for the backyard don't just have to be placed on the ground or even on a plinth. Some, like the Dragon of Falkenberg Castle Moat Lawn Statue seem to come right out of the ground, while items like the Bigfoot Statue seem to lope through the yard and statues such as the Black Panther stalk the flowerbeds. Others find their home in the trees and make for a naturally beautiful addition to outdoor holiday decor.

Animal garden statues like Simone, the Squirrel Hanging Sculpture are so realistic that you can expect the live, bushy-tailed, inquisitive variety to come and scold it on more than a few occasions. Birds may keep their distance and neighbors will wonder why you have a pet squirrel until you put a little Santa Claus hat on its head.

Yonva, the Climbing Bear Sculpture is another animal statue meant for the trees. Modeled after a real bear cub, Yonva plays the role perfectly with its adorable face and highly detailed, furry appearance. Black Bears like Yonva are naturally good climbers and they often sleep in nests high up in a tree. Larger and bulkier Brown Bears usually stick to the ground because they don't climb trees nearly as well. This is demonstrated by the oh so cute Out on a Limb Hanging Brown Bear Statue!

Birdwatching has been growing in popularity as a hobby. It's easy to do, doesn't require much more than binoculars and a field guide, and can be done right in the backyard. That said, there's a good chance that you welcome our feathered friends into the garden or know someone who does. While feeders and the right type of vegetation provide food and shelter for backyard birds, you can also demonstrate your hobby with animal garden statues.

Both bird lovers and anyone who appreciates wildlife will like the Rock Hopper Penguin Statue. True to their name, Rockhoppers hop around on rocky subantarctic shores and add a touch of flair to their cold surroundings with long, golden-plumed eyebrows. Get this highly detailed statue for the garden to give it a bit of beautiful penguin flair.

For a detailed sculpture of one of the wiser, more predatory birds in the woods, buy the Perching Forest Owl Statue. As is common with all of our animal statues, the realistic beauty of this piece will make neighbors wonder if you have an owl living in the backyard. Don't be surprised if it takes a few days for the backyard birds to get used to it!

How can you not like Meerkats? Animated and entertaining, they stand on their hind legs to scan their surroundings for both friend and foe. Their black-tipped fingers and dark markings around the eyes give them a wonderfully mischievous, cartoon-like appearance. It's too bad that these beautiful little animals only naturally occur in southern Africa but at least you can add them to your yard in the form of realistic, detailed animal garden statues. The main question is which one to put in the garden?

The Meerkat Gang Sculpture is a classic depiction of these noble little creatures and looks beautiful in any yard.Try putting it near the flowers so the Meerkats can guard them with bright, watchful eyes.

You can also mix Meerkats with outdoor garden water fountains when you buy the Meerkat Family at the Watering Hole Sculpture. Just as they would do in their dry Kalahari Desert homeland, a family of Meerkats hangs out at a precious watering hole and stand on their hind legs to get a better view of their surroundings.

For one of the cutest of Meerkat statues, see the Kalahari Meerkat Statue: Out of Hole. Just as the name of the statue implies, a cute Meerkat peeks its adorable head out of its burrow to inspect your garden.

The animal yard statue is a classic addition to any backyard. Sculptures of animals like lions, horses, and even turtles bring elegance to the garden by showcasing their natural beauty. They can look stunning all on their own but some animal statues also combine beauty with utility in the form of tables.

The Out on a Limb Bear Cub Sculptural Table is a fine example of one such table and the sculptured table column is so detailed and realistic, you might be tempted to just put it on display for that reason alone. However, if you opt for also using it as a table, the thick glass top will act as a solid support for a cold drink, favorite books, or displaying exquisite objets d'art.

While that sculptural table can be used in the garden, it works better inside the home. The Black Forest Bear Pedestal Table, though, is an excellent item for outdoor garden parties. This bear is happy to make sure that your favorite drink and snacks are within reach!

For a more colorful approach, try the beautiful Great Barrier Reef Glass-topped Table! Sculpted with detailed depictions of stunning reef fish and bright corals that are topped with a round glass top, it's the perfect place for a poolside drink.

We all have our favorite animal. Some people have a penchant for horses while others love everything dogs. Then there are those who can't get enough of cats. They may have a pet cat or two but take their appreciation for felines a step further by displaying beautiful sculptures and paintings of Tabbies, Siamese Cats, and other breeds. Cats can sit still for so long that they kind of resemble living statues all on their own. As they exude an enviable Zen-like elegance, their sleek proportions make them easy to admire and excellent subjects for garden statuary.

The ancient Egyptians considered cats to be sacred and trained Cheetahs for the hunt. They showed their love of cats with many a painting and sculpture. Continue the tradition with Stalking the Savannah Cheetah Statue for the garden and the beautiful Charging Cheetah Wall Frieze for the inside of both home and business. Both of these works of art demonstrate the grace and speed of the world's fastest land animal in detailed beauty.

The Shadowed Black Panther Statue is another animal yard statue most for anyone who appreciates the deadly beauty of a cat on the prowl. As a word of warning, it might take some time to get used to this beautiful statue on account of its detailed realism and penetrating, green eyes!

Halloween decor can come in many shapes and sizes. In addition to the usual cut-outs of ghosts, spiders, and other scary creatures, zombie sculptures and certain animal yard statues can help transform an average looking house into a lair of horrors. Although many people put dragon statues on display as part of a general Gothic or Medieval theme, they also make for great Halloween decor.

There's no denying the potential for terror with the Mystic Dragon Avenger Statue. Curling around a stone orb as it readies itself to pounce, this dragon displays furious eyes and open toothy maw for a truly menacing look.

The remains of dragons look just as frightening and your Halloween party guests will wonder what you have been up to when they come across the Stoker's Moors Dragon Skull while taking a pleasant stroll in your garden.

While many dragons are scary, most are also mystical and not nearly as terrifying as the very persona of death. Grim reapers take the prize when it comes to terrifying decor and the Ultimate Destiny Gothic Grim Reaper Statue is one of the most disturbing! Guests will also love it when you "welcome" them with a "no trespassing" sign flanked by Grim Reapers.

The animal yard statue can demonstrate your love for all things wild and free, an appreciation for certain types of animals, or that you recognize the inherent artistry found in nature. Whether your backyard receives visits from deer or nothing bigger than a squirrel, animal sculptures help turn it into a wilder place. Statues of felines like the Shadowed Predator Black Panther remind us of the dangerous beauty shown by the cold, green eyes of a cat ready to pounce on its prey. The Prowling Spotted Jaguar statue demonstrates the intricate, almost hypnotic pattern found on their coats.

Garden statuary of non-predatory animals are just as beautiful. A statue of a mother doe and fawn make for a realistic, very tender addition to the garden while Meerkat and Ring-tailed Lemur sculptures can't help but be the most charming statuary in the yard.

Realistic animal sculptures are a beautiful addition to any backyard but many look just as nice in a business. Those same Meerkat and Ring-tailed Lemur sculptures will be adored by clients no matter what type of business you own. Put them in a small rock garden or display them on a stand to entertain and charm every customer that walks through the front doors.

Sculptures of animals have been used in gardens for centuries. The more realistic and detailed the statue, the better it captures the natural artistic beauty of its wild subject. Horses have long been one of the more popular subjects for animal statues. Anyone who has watched a horse race or seen the power and grace of a wild Mustang can easily understand why artists might have a tough time not making equine sculptures.

Our Majestic Horse Sculpture couldn't be more appropriately named. This resin statue with a beautiful bronze patina is an heirloom piece destined to be marveled over by generations to come. Its flowing mane and tail, and detailed muscled appearance make this stunning grand scale sculpture the closest thing to having a real, live horse prancing around the garden.

The smaller yet more dramatic Majestic Mustang Horse Sculpture displays the power and fierce beauty of a wild, free-roaming Mustang. He rears up on his hind legs in defiance of ever being captured and tamed.

Dogs have also been a common subject for animal garden sculptures. Faithful, loving, and loyal to the end, dogs can demonstrate a range of admirable characteristics. The heartwarming Man's Best Friend animal yard statue demonstrates the things we love about canines by eagerly awaiting the arrival of its master with a basket of flowers and eager, loving eyes.

Garden statuary comes in so many shapes, themes, and sizes that it can be hard to pick out the sculptures meant to beautify your backyard. Although some of those big, Buddha statues look downright inspirational, most folks tend to feel like they look out of place in non Asian-themed gardens. The same goes for Greek garden statues in a backyard that already hosts sculptures of a Giant Panda and pagodas. If the backyard is big enough, you could probably get away with dedicating different corners of the yard to different decorating themes but mixing them together is likely to result in a confusing, crowded, conglomeration of statuary.

In the case of angel statues, though, their universal appeal helps them fit into a wide variety of decorating themes. As long as an angel is placed off to the side of Asian-themed statues, they don't cause much of an intrusion. The same goes for a yard replete with animal garden statues. Although the animal sculptures are more colorful and generally realistic than sculptures of angels, as long as both types of statuary are kept somewhat separate, they don't really disrupt the decorating theme.

Is your backyard graced with angel and animal statues? Do you mix them together or keep them separated? Tell us about your yard in the comments!

Elephants are considered to be good luck in Thailand and other parts of southern Asia. Rumored to have excellent memories and known to be fiercely loyal to their herd and protective of their young, elephants embody a number of noble characteristics. To demonstrate reverence and appreciation for pachyderms, statues of these powerful, intelligent, and unmistakable animals can be seen in many hotels, restaurants, and shops in southern Asia. They also make for interesting garden statuary, especially when the sculptures are as realistic as the ones offered by Design Toscano.

Put the Trunk-Up Baby Elephant Statue in the yard and neighbors may wonder if you are harboring a private zoo or the most exotic of pets. This statue is about as realistic as you can get without having a real, live elephant roaming through the garden. Kids and adults alike will love the detailed wrinkles and playful features of this cute baby elephant.

The Triumphant Entry Elephant Statue might not be life-size but it makes up for that with highly detailed features and a proud, realistic appearance. Its three foot height and more than four foot length also make it big enough to impress and bestow good luck upon your guests.

The garden statuary used to decorate the green space behind your house says as much about you as it does the yard. Put up a few classic Greek garden statues and you might have an appreciation for ancient cultures and art that lasts for ages. It might also represent pride in your Greek or other Mediterranean heritage and a tendency to appreciate realistic art forms.

A Buddha statue could show that you enjoy the neat appearance of an Asian-themed garden. This is almost certainly the case if the sculpture is flanked by bronze cranes or an animal yard statue of a panda. If the Buddha sculpture shares the backyard scene with statues of dragons and other legendary creatures, it might show that you have an imagination that appreciates fantasy novels and are intrigued by the many mysteries of life, or it could indicate that you are a practicing Buddhist.

However, if a look around the garden also reveals items as varied as garden fairies, animal statues, and water fountains, it could just be that you love to decorate your backyard with beautiful statues. No matter what the reason is for including a Buddha statue in the garden, both jolly and meditative depictions of the Buddha are a fantastic addition to any yard.

Sasquatch or Bigfoot is a fantastic legend. Unlike tiny fairies and monsters that can hide out in deep, dark lakes, Bigfoot is a huge, towering creature that wanders through the wild woodlands of North America. It leaves massive footprints wherever it walks, has been glimpsed by hundreds of people on the darkest of nights, and even reveals itself with howls that send shivers up the spines of even the most stalwart of woodsmen. The absence of definitive proof in the face of numerous sightings and evidence makes this creature a true enigma. In fact, the legend of Bigfoot is so enduring that believers have even formed Bigfoot study and research groups.

Armed with the latest in infrared technology and night vision goggles, they head out into the night in the wildest of places to howl like Bigfoot and search for an encounter. Some say they get a response while others come up with nothing. Whether Sasquatch roams the wilds of America or not, a much easier way to find it is by ordering a Big Foot Garden Statue. Although we won't deny or state that we got a Sasquatch to pose for the sculpture, we will say that it's the most realistic Bigfoot animal yard statue available.
