PRICES
I can weave any life-size animals for commissions. The larger sculptures are particularly good for pubs, hotels, stately homes and commercial promotions, but are equally at home in a private garden.
Please do give me a few months notice if possible especially near Christmas as I do get rather booked up.

After care for willow sculptures
Your sculpture should last for many years, but to prolong its life if kept outside, you should spray it with a breathable wood preserve, or a 50/50 mix of boiled linseed oil and turpentine at least twice a year when the sculpture is dry. How long your willow sculpture lasts will also depend on a few factions such as the weather, and the density of the weave.The denser the weave the longer it will last. If placed in a damp area it will not last as well as in full sun. Another way to lengthen its lifespan is to bring it inside for the winter.
