Product is handmade by skilled artisans. Due to the nature of materials used and manufacturing processes, as well as the varied conditions for photography, natural variations can occur in size weight and color. Actual color may vary from photo. All bench/table legs and statuary should be raised up off the ground in winter so they will not freeze to the ground surface. Items that have areas that pool water should be wrapped with burlap or any absorbent material (old blanket/towel) and then wrapped with dark plastic, making sure that water does not accumulate and freeze.
