Home and Garden Statues and Sculpture Experts

May is here and now that the warm weather is also here to stay, it's time to decorate the backyard with your favorite resin garden statues. While taking those beautiful stone garden angels and other statues out of storage, think about how you would like to decorate the walls or even the roof of your home. The warm, pleasant weather makes it possible to put fantastic greenmen sculptures on display and put decor up on the roof. Although very few items are fitting as roof decor, there is one that makes a distinctive, elegant touch to any home or business. This functional, well known item is the weathervane and it adds a big dose of personality to any structure.

The Windblown Wicked Witch Metal Weathervane can be placed up on the roof or set up in the garden. Either way, this distinctive rust-resistant aluminum sculpture seems to race with the wind as breezes blow through your neighborhood. Crown your home with this fun weathervane to give your place a classic, mystical touch.

If topping the house with a witch on a broom doesn't seem to work, try a beautiful Galloping Horse Full-Size Weathervane or a Full-Size Soaring Eagle Weathervane. Both of these functional decor items are beautiful, copper weathervanes that add a dramatic touch to any home or business.

Interior decor comes in many forms. It can combine elegance and beauty, act as functional works of art, provide lighting in unique ways, and fill a room with atmosphere. Then there are decor items that exhibit such stunning colors and exquisite beauty that they convert regular, everyday rooms into enchanting chambers. Tiffany-style stained glass windows and lamps accomplish this act with ease. The combination of vivid colors, shapes, and intricate designs that are hallmarks of Tiffany-style windows are breathtaking to behold. The colors seem to come to life and help turn the window into a bejeweled work of art as they are touched by the rays of the sun.

The Beguiled in Blue Tiffany-Style Window demonstrates the enchanting beauty of this art form with a combination of gentle woodland colors that are outlined with a vibrant blue border. This stunning work of art shows its colors with 375 hand cut pieces of glass and 59 cabochons. As with all authentic Tiffany-style works, each piece of glass is copper-foiled and encased in glazier's lead.

The Blackstone Hall Window is another Tiffany-style item that adds a bright touch to any room with a cheery combination of cobalt and golden hues. Use the scrolled bracket to hang it in a window frame!

Many a temple and sacred site in eastern Asia is guarded by the presence of stone sculptures carved in the likeness of a powerful, lion-like dog. They often flank the main doorways of temples and other places of importance to prevent evil spirits and bad luck from entering. These muscular statues are also a sign of strength and are believed to bring good luck to all who walk past their fierce gaze. They are designed to make a big impression and this is exactly why Foo Dog sculptures are an excellent addition to the entranceway of a backyard, home, and business.

Garden guests will feel a sense of awe and excitement as they walk past sculptures of the Giant Foo Dog of the Forbidden City. Inspired by the massive Foo Dogs that guard the Forbidden City in Beijing, China, the fierce dogs in these statues also wear power orbs and are set on top of regal, ornamental plinths. You can also put one or two at the front door of your house and business to make guests feel as if they are walking into a royal, mysterious palace.

While the Giant Foo Dog sculpture also works as powerful interior decor, the smaller (yet no less exquisite) Chinese Guardian Lion Foo Dog statues look breathtaking when put on display inside the home, office, or business.

The marble bust has a look of distinction that makes it an elegant addition to a living room, den, or office. The classy nature of this timeless work of art also makes it ideal decor for a hotel or restaurant. The bust was a popular genre of sculpture for ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans and continues to be a common sight in distinguished homes and gardens to this day. Today and tomorrow are ideal days for buying certain busts from Design Toscano because you get a 20% discount on any new busts as long as they are purchased by tomorrow, April 24th.

Add a fine, classic touch to your interior decor with a bust of Minerva, the Roman Goddess of Wisdom. Known as Athena by the ancient Greeks, Minerva shows her war-like side with a feather-plumed helmet and breastplate embossed with an image of Medusa. This classic sculpture is a fine replica of an eighteenth century piece crafted by Antonio Canova and is made of bonded marble resin.

To decorate with a replica of much older decor, buy the Apollo Belvedere Bonded Marble Resin Sculptural Bust. This beautiful, very classic bust of the Greek God of youth, light, and masculine beauty was first crafted in bronze by Greek artist "Leochares" in the 4th century BC. The Romans liked this work of art so much that they made a marble copy. That marble version was lost until the 15th century and has been kept in the Vatican ever since.

Spring is here and summer is just around the corner. The warmer weather translates to a lot more time being spent in your beautiful backyard to enjoy the outdoors and taking dips in the pool. Even when you don't go for a swim, it doesn't get more relaxing than sitting by the water with a cold drink at your side and a great book in your hands. With that in mind, you need the right type of decor to add to the relaxing poolside atmosphere. Animal garden statues can work especially well as poolside decor because they can help make you feel as if you are actually sitting by the shores of a distant, tropical sea.

Two such animal garden sculptures are the Giant White Pelican and the Giant Loggerhead Sea Turtle Statue. Both of these sculptures were carefully sculpted to show the type of details that make them look as if they are going to come to life. The Giant White Pelican has the same look and saunter as the real pelicans that hang out at seaside docks in search of scraps, while the Loggerhead Turtle sculpture looks ready and able to slip into the water for a few laps around the pool.

Meerkats are one of the cutest animals on the planet. The black markings around their eyes and on their paws make them look like little bandits and when they stand on their hind legs, Meerkats look absolutely adorable. Given their charismatic attributes, it's no wonder that Meerkats are excellent inspiration for animal garden statues. Sculptures of these confiding little animals are a wonderful, seriously cute addition to any garden but they complement some garden decorating themes better than others.

For example, although you could put the Meerkat Clan Statue and a classic stone garden angel next to each other, that's not going to look nearly as good as pairing Meerkat sculptures with other African animals. Meerkats are native to the arid plains of southern Africa so they look much better when they share a garden with sculptures like the Lioness with Cub or Gigi, the Garden Giraffe Statue. Both of these sculptures are as representative of dramatic, amazing African wildlife as statues of Meerkats.

Meerkats also work very will with garden fairies. They have a similar mischievous appearance, are small, crafty creatures, and are right at home in flower beds and vegetable patches. They will look right at home when sharing a backyard with the Fairies of the Meadow and just about any garden gnome statues.

The warm days have finally come back and it's time to take advantage of that pleasant weather by hosting parties in the garden. Whether you feel like throwing a party with a theme or not, you don't want to leave out the decor. It can take the form of Greek garden statues, stone garden angels, or your favorite gargoyle sculptures as long as you feel like your guests will be entertained. The following are a few ideas for garden statuary destined to be a hit at any backyard party:

• Black Forest Bear Pedestal Table: This fantastic garden statuary item is a wonderful, functional piece that fits in with any party scene. Use it to serve drinks and snacks at the party and when the festivities are over, use it for the same purpose while watching your favorite TV series.
• Madame and Monsieur Escargot: This brightly colored pair of big garden snails are wonderful decor at any backyard party. Put them near the pool, by the back door, or on the patio for a touch of fun, cute, and colorful decor.
• The Lono Grand Tiki Sculptural Table: This is another excellent piece of functional decor that was made for parties. Modeled after Polynesian Tiki sculptures, this side table adds character to every party.

Gargoyles are dramatic decor no matter where they are displayed but they seem to do best when perched atop a castle wall or when leering down at folks who are walking in and out of a Gothic cathedral. Such situations were the first places where European gargoyles were used as decor and they still tend to look more impressive when crouched up on top of a parapet than when sitting on the ground. Although sculptures like the Legend of Cambridge Hopping Gargoyle look intimidating no matter where you put them, most winged gargoyles look right at home when perched on top of a pedestal.

To reach those high places they love, gargoyles could simply use their bat-like wings and fly but if the Gargoyle Demon on the Loose Sculpture is any indication, it appears that some prefer to creep up the walls of castles, churches, and homes like slinking miniature dragons. This frightening Medieval gargoyle shows that he is up to no good with an intriguing, evil grin. Pair it with the unique Catgoyle on the Loose Sculpture for garden wall decor that will give guests something to talk about! 

However, no gargoyle wall decor theme would be complete without Gaston the Climbing Gargoyle. Sculpted with eerie, realistic details, Gaston is bound to be one of more intimidating garden statuary items in your collection.

Garden fairies are one of the more exquisite types of outdoor statues. Sculpted with graceful lines, curves, and beautiful details, they can punctuate the backyard with elegance in a distinctly magical way. Although there are some fairy statues that show a bit of color, most are painted in classic, faux stone hues. There's nothing wrong with that classical look but it's still nice to have a few fairy statues that are painted in some of the same bright colors as the flower patches where they "live".

Folks hoping to combine bright colors with the elegance and magic of the fairy statue will be happy to know about the Pondering Pixie Stained Glass Sculpture. This wonderful work of art is one of the most colorful fairy sculptures you will ever see. Our happy little pixie is brought to life with delicate flesh tines, pink lips, and tousled brown hair. She also sports a beautiful green leaf dress with a reddish waist band but her colors truly show when the sun hits her sparkling stained glass wings. Inspired by the orange and pale blue shades shown by a Monarch Butterfly, her wings are made of 75 different, copper-foiled, hand cut pieces of stained glass. This pixie shines with color both inside the home and when placed outdoors and will become a bright spot in any garden.

Find the beautiful Pondering Pixie Stained Glass Sculpture, realistic animal garden sculptures, and hundreds of other enchanting garden decor items at Design Toscano. 

Bigfoot has become a classic, essential part of American and Canadian folklore. Although irrefutable evidence is lacking, thousands of people claim to have glimpsed or heard the primeval screams of the huge, hairy biped while visiting remote and wild places. Whether it truly walks beneath the huge evergreens of the Pacific northwest or only occurs in our imagination, Bigfoot represents the wild and mysterious side of North America's forests and mountains. We, of course, offer detailed, realistic statues of Bigfoot and thousands of people have put one or more on display in in their backyards. People put statues of Bigfoot on display for a variety of reasons, but the following are a few of the most common reasons for showing this unique decor in the garden:

• An intriguing creature: Bigfoot captures the minds of millions of Americans and Canadians. Many of us are captivated by the stories of witnesses who claim to have seen Sasquatch and we can't help but wonder if it could actually exist in some deep, dark forest.
• A unique sculpture: Although we offer hundreds of unique, high quality sculptures, a statue of Bigfoot is a far cry from your average garden gnome. It makes it possible for people to add a truly different statue to the garden.
• An expression of fantasy and an open mind: Putting a sculpture of Bigfoot on display shows that you have an appreciation for the fantasy genre as well as a realization that our modern world is hardly bereft of mystery.

Greenmen statues are an interesting and unique addition to the backyard. Since they act as wall decor or as sculptures that work with their natural surroundings, they can be used with most decorating themes. However, although greenmen are often referred to as being magical, enchanting, or inspirational, they aren't usually viewed as being functional sculptures because most don't seem to be capable of doing much more than decorating a wall or tree. Nevertheless, there is more than one type of functional greenman sculpture, one of the most striking being the Odin Treestump sculpture. This wonderful, creative greenman pays homage to the Ents of Tolkien fame and other tales that speak of walking, talking tree giants in the form of a resin garden statue that looks like an old treestump with a wizened face.

Odin can be placed in the backyard to act as a statue that combines everyday nature with magical mystical creatures, or this sculpture can be used as a creative table for holding a cold drink on a hot, summer day. Expect this functional greenman to also be a hit at summer garden parties.

Another way of combining the creativity of the greenman statue with function is by putting the Greenman Sculptural Garden Wall Font on display. This authentic foundry iron casting is a striking, classic means of holding your favorite flower cuttings.

Spring is here and it's time to redecorate the garden. This year, why not decorate the backyard with a different theme? Instead of putting out the usual selection of angel statues and garden gnomes, try decorating the backyard with a couple of dragons. They don't have to replace the rest of your decor, but by putting a dragon statue on display, you show your appreciation for the fantasy genre while giving the garden a unique, dramatic touch. 

Get your backyard ready for the warm days of spring and summer with dragon sculptures like Ranier, the Sculptural Dragon Rainspout. Put this Medieval-themed functional dragon sculpture on the end of a gutter to help channel water away from the house. This impressive dragon statue is designed to look as if Ranier is breathing fire every time it rains.

To help turn your backyard into a place of enchantment, put Dragon-Orb sculptures on display such as Mayze, the Dragon Protector of the Orb and Sir Sagremor's Dragon Statue with Orb. Mayze shows that the fantasy genre is that much more magical when humor is thrown into the mix. Poor Mayze seems to be more interested in taking a nap on top of the orb rather than ferociously protecting it and thus makes for one of the most adorable little dragon statues you will ever see. Sir Sagremor's dragon isn't exactly cute but he makes up for it with realistic, eye-catching details.

The desk has become the modern-day workplace. Many people spend most of every workday at a desk and if they don't, they usually end up spending at least some time at a desk once they get home. It's where the home computer is and so this where many of us play games, access the Internet, and watch movies even if we also have a mobile device. With so much time being spent at a desk in the workplace and in the home, it's worth it to decorate all of your desks with beautiful, impressive decor.

Forget about putting a few odds and ends on display. Instead, demonstrate nobility, class, and appreciation for ancient art by decorating the desk with Egyptian decorations like the Bastet's Egyptian Altar Timepiece. This functional work of art shows Bastet, Egyptian Cat Goddess and guardian of time, next to a classy quartz timepiece with Roman numerals.

Even putting something as simple as an Egyptian pen holder on the desk will add excitement and mystery to your workspace. The Egyptian Pharaoh Pen Vessel is decorated with authentic hieroglyphics and the image of a Pharaoh. It looks even better when used for holding our Ancient Egypt Pen Collection. Combine these eye-catching items with the intriguing Egyptian Icons Perpetual Calendar Statue to heighten the Egyptian appearance of your desk.

The backyard should always be a place where you can escape to when you need some time away from the stress of everyday life. Whether you use the backyard to grow vegetables or to enjoy a private swim, decorate it the right way and it can act as your own personal sanctuary. Although suitable decor varies by preference and taste, most people will agree that the following three garden statuary items will promote peace and relaxation for just about any garden:

• The Bright Waters Otters Sculptural Fountain: This functional work of art combines the peaceful sounds of flowing water with the natural beauty of rocks and curious Otters. The lights in this soothing fountain add a further touch of beauty to this impressive sculpture.
• The Holy Family Sculpture: This beautiful statue follows the 15th century style of portraying Jesus, Mary, and Joseph with a combination of elegance and mysticism. This type of statue was and is still is commonly seen in European cathedrals, in the backyards of Tuscan estates, and other places that are used as sanctuaries of one sort or another.
•  Nature's Baby Peaceful Garden Nap Statue: This endearing sculpture is so relaxing that it might act as inspiration for taking a nap. Nestle this adorable garden statue in a patch of flowers or put it right outside the back door.

Find these items, amazing animal garden statues, and hundreds of unique decor for backyard, home, and office at Design Toscano.
