Pick up available from the Gold Coast

PLEASE NOTE: Only a few of these are made each time. These sell out very quickly because there's not alot of them made & take up to 3 or so months to make each one.
These are more expensive due to being ALOT more detailed and realistic than the other metal sculptures I am selling and take at least 3 times as long to make by hand- see the detail of these!
These are realistic and alot more detail to them than all the other Zimbabwean Metal Sculptures and have been especially made for the Australian outdoors & designed by an Australian designer/artist
Please look through my listings to see the other Bird I have for sale in the life-like detailed series- Saddle Billed Stork- (or please ask),
and also available by the same design artist are other sets of birds, reptiles, flowers and also even fairies and other Mythical Kingdom creatures I have listed
See them in my eBay listings! If not listed, please ask for details
The animals can be positioned on level or unlevelled ground by locking the feet into place with tent pegs. If the animals are not to be removed (e.g. front yards) follow the same procedure only pushing the tent pegs into quick dry cement.
Wherever the styles allow, the designer of these sculptures desings them with Mother & Baby theme. When positioned together it creates the feel of movement & style rather than a piece being a static sculpture.
With all of their larger bird & animal sculptures their legs are easily removable, making them cost effective & easy to freight all over the world.
I buy these birds & other creatures from the Australian man who created these designs and he now employs 40 Zimbabweans to make these sculptures.
"All of their employees were unskilled people, with hidden talents, who had few opportunities open to them. They have trained them in the various skills necessary to make the stunning range of products. All of his employees are paid well above the Government stipulated awards and given many additional benefits including free medical support.
In a country where finding affordable food can be a full time job he takes the pressure off his staff and their families by providing them with two cooked meals each day. He also gives them food parcels to take home to their families each month to further relieve the pressure.
They also continue to support families when husbands and fathers have passed away. On at least two occasions rather than leave wives and other supported family members with no income he continued to pay them wages while putting the wives through a two-year sewing course. On completion he purchased them each a sewing machine and some fabric. They are now both supporting themselves and family by sewing and repairing various garments."
So you know when buying these fantastic realistic sculptures, you are helping support these people escape poverty.
These sculptures have been made with detachable legs for easier shipment, though these Emus are extra heavy
