Barred Bandicoot garden ornament

Unlike a real Bandicoot, this rustic steel version is unlikely to dig holes in your grass. This cute little Ninapatina Bandicoot is made from Corten weathering steel and sits on a stand so it can be placed anywhere in a garden pot, on a path, on a shelf.

Each of these garden ornaments is unique and has been cut individually from metal scraps.

Enhance your space with Australian garden ornaments that are handmade by Ninapatina using traditional craft skills. Exposure to the elements enhances this type of metal. More rust will develop over time and exposure to water and wind will help.

The designer, Nina Koops, produces metallic garden art at a family owned welding and fabrication business in the beautiful Huon Valley (southern Tasmania).

----------

Weathering steel resists the corrosive effects of weather conditions by forming a coating of dark brown oxidation over the metal, and this inhibits deeper rust penetration.
