Product Information
Full details
The Spitfire Garden Stake is designed for homeowners and garden enthusiasts looking to add dynamic movement and artistic flair to their outdoor spaces. Its standout benefit is the kinetic silhouette that reacts to the slightest breeze, creating a tranquil focal point. A potential caveat to consider is that the steel construction is designed to weather naturally over time, which may result in surface oxidation if you prefer a pristine, unchanging finish.

FAQs
Can I leave this out during winter?
Yes, the steel is designed for outdoor use, though bringing it inside during extreme weather can help preserve the finish.
How tall is the sculpture?
The total height is approximately 111cm.
Does it require tools for assembly?
No, the components are designed to screw together by hand.
Will the finish peel off?
The finish is designed to weather naturally. Over time, the material may develop a patina consistent with outdoor steel products.
Can it be used in a windy area?
Yes, the kinetic design is meant to move with the wind, but ensure the stake is anchored securely into the ground to prevent tipping.
Troubleshooting
The silhouette is not spinning smoothly
Check the pivot point for debris or obstructions and ensure the stake is perfectly vertical.
The stake feels unstable in the ground
Ensure the pole is pushed deep enough into the soil; for planters, add extra gravel or weight around the base of the stake for better support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Assembly is straightforward: take the two pole sections and screw them together, then attach the balancing silhouette top. To install, insert the base of the stake into firm soil or a deep, weighted planter. To maintain the structural integrity, periodically check that the threaded connections on the pole remain tight. While the steel is durable, you can clean the surface with a damp cloth to remove debris. If you prefer to keep the black finish intact for longer, consider applying a clear outdoor-grade rust-preventative sealant before the initial installation.
