What Makes It Uncommon

Who’s that peeking out from the hedges? Oh, it’s just a curious critter, courtesy of metalsmith Chris Crooks. Add one (or a few) to your bushes to give the illusion that an adorable, albeit slightly shy, friend is hiding inside.

  • Choose from Flamingo, Llama, or Ostrich.
  • Plasma-cut from 18-gauge steel.
  • Each piece is polished, washed, and rusted by hand for a signature finish that will develop a rich patina over time.
  • Designed for placement in hedges, planters, or garden beds.
  • Handmade in Arizona.

Sold individually.

“I started out from my garage. As the business grew, and my wife’s and neighbors' patience stretched, it was time to move to an industrial space. There I can bang and grind at all hours of the night. It's 1,000 square feet of pure metalworking nirvana.”

Chris Crooks took a winding road to get to where he is now—creating imaginative lawn sculptures inspired by the Southwest landscape he calls home. After graduating from the Art Institute of Philadelphia, Chris worked in advertising, then ran a printing business with his wife, while painting during his free time. It was when the couple moved to Tucson that Chris collaborated with a metal art manufacturer and fell in love with the art form. He now designs and creates sculptures in his studio at the foot of the Santa Rita Mountains. "I always wanted to make a living doing something genuinely enjoyable," he says. "To get up in the morning raring to go, and never having enough time to do everything you want to do."

What size in the animal part and how long is the stake? Also curious how long these last in humid Florida where everything rusts quickly.

Verified reply from Michelle

Hello! The animal part of the peeper is approximately 12 inches and the stake portion is approximately 15 inches. If you want to extend the life of the finish to last a little longer in extremely humid weather, we recommend sealing the product with some sort of clear coat/spray can sealer. This product does not come sealed.
