Does it come with fixing hardware?

Can I paint the stone?

Troubleshooting

Visible color variations between units

This is a natural byproduct of the handmade stone casting process and is not a defect.

Finial feels wobbly after installation

Ensure you used the correct amount of exterior-grade masonry adhesive and that the surface was properly cured and level.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable, weather-resistant stone cast material
  • Authentic, hand-finished aesthetic
  • Designed and manufactured in the UK
  • Classic pineapple design suits both modern and traditional gardens

Cons

  • Color variations are expected due to the handmade nature
  • Weight of 24 kg requires two people for safe lifting and installation
  • Requires professional adhesive or mortar for permanent mounting

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires a strong adhesive suitable for exterior stone, such as a high-strength stone mortar or specialized masonry glue. Ensure the mounting surface is completely free of dust, loose mortar, or moss before application. Regarding care, the stone cast material develops a natural patina over time. Periodic cleaning with mild soap and water using a soft brush is sufficient to remove debris. Avoid using high-pressure power washers, which may damage the hand-finished surface. During the winter, check that no water is trapped between the base and the mounting surface to prevent freeze-thaw damage.
