Design Toscano Hanging Sloth Statue — Horatio 13.5" Hand-Painted, 22" Rope, Crushed Stone Resin

A hand-cast, hand-painted Design Toscano three-toed sloth statue that hangs by a 22-inch rope for charming indoor or outdoor display.

Bring a slow-paced, whimsical accent to your porch, garden, patio, or living room with the Hanging Horatio sloth by Design Toscano. This sculpted animal figure is cast from crushed stone and resin, then finished by artisans to capture scruffy fur texture, a gentle smile, and wide, expressive eyes. At 8" wide × 6" deep × 13½" high and weighing about 3 pounds, Horatio arrives ready to suspend from a tree limb, beam, or ceiling hook with the included 22-inch rope.

How durable is the Horatio sloth for outdoor use?

Horatio is built from crushed stone bonded with designer resin, giving the piece a weighty, stone-like feel and improved resistance to the elements compared with plain plastic. The hand-painted finish adds character but should be protected from prolonged direct weather exposure to preserve color. For best longevity, place Horatio in a covered outdoor area or bring indoors during extreme weather.

• Hand-cast crushed stone and resin construction for solid, durable feel
• Hand-painted finish highlights texture and facial detail
• Recommended for covered porches or seasonal outdoor display

Where and how can I hang this sloth statue?

The statue includes a pre-attached 22-inch rope, ready to be looped over a branch, beam, shepherd's hook, or ceiling hook. Its compact footprint and 3-pound weight make it easy to reposition and safe for most hanging hardware when properly secured. Position Horatio at eye level for maximum visual impact or tuck him into leafy branches for a peek-a-boo effect.
