What materials and construction give this statue its realistic look?

The sculpture is handcast from a designer resin mixed with crushed stone to reproduce fine surface details like fur lines and muscle tone. After casting, artisans hand-paint each figure to layer natural hues and shadows, ensuring every statue reads as a realistic wild cat at a glance. The polyresin base offers weather-resistant strength while holding sculptural detail.

• Handcast designer resin blended with crushed stone for texture
• Individual hand-painted finish for color depth and natural shading
• Durable polyresin that resists cracking and keeps sculptural detail

How large is the cougar and where can I place it?

The figure measures approximately 22.5 inches wide, 5.5 inches deep, and 8.5 inches high, making it substantial without dominating a space. Its low-profile, prowling pose fits along garden borders, on a porch step, beside a pathway, or on a mantel as a dramatic indoor accent. The weight of about 4 pounds makes it easy to reposition seasonally or for display changes.

• Dimensions: 22.5" W × 5.5" D × 8.5" H
• Weight: ~4 lbs — easy to move for seasonal displays
• Placement ideas: garden bed edge, stone ledge, porch, indoor shelf

Is this statue suitable for outdoor use and how should I care for it?

Designed for both indoor and outdoor display, the polyresin construction withstands typical yard conditions, though extreme weather may shorten its finish life. For best longevity, place the statue on a stable, elevated surface away from direct, prolonged exposure to harsh sun or freezing moisture. Clean gently with mild soap and water; avoid power washing or strong solvents to protect the hand-painted surface.

• Indoor/outdoor polyresin suited for patios, porches, and interiors
• Recommended: sheltered placement and occasional gentle cleaning
• Avoid abrasive cleaners, prolonged direct sunlight, and freeze-thaw cycles

What makes this Design Toscano piece a good decorative choice?
