A Charming Symbol of Peace, Nature & Simple Joy
This elegant Bird & Bell Garden Stake is crafted by traditional metal artisans from Rajasthan — a region celebrated for its hand-forged ironwork, bell-making heritage, and minimal yet poetic folk motifs. What appears simple at first glance is, in fact, the result of multiple artisanal processes: hand-bending iron rods into fluid, organic shapes, forging the miniature bell using the centuries-old Kharadi technique, and applying a rustic, weathered gold finish that feels nostalgic and quietly luxurious.
The open-line silhouette of the bird is a classic Rajasthani wire-art form, often seen in courtyard décor and temple gardens. It carries the lightness of a sketch brought to life — a single, continuous gesture of metal that captures the spirit of nature with almost calligraphic ease.
Each stake is shaped, welded, hammered, and finished entirely by hand. As a result, small bends, irregularities, patina marks, and variations in the bell’s tone are not flaws but beautiful reminders that your piece is truly handmade — unique in the world.
What Makes This Piece Exceptional
Traditional Rajasthani metal-bending work
The bird outline is formed by heating and bending iron wire by hand — an old technique once used to craft tools, lantern frames, and temple ornaments. Even today, only a handful of artisan families continue this style of freeform metal shaping.
Authentic hand-forged rustic bell
The hanging bell is made in the style of Kutchi / Rajasthani ghantiyas — small rustic bells originally crafted for cattle in rural India. Each bell is hammered from scrap metal, shaped entirely without molds, then fire-tuned to produce its soft, earthy chime.
A meaningful symbol for your garden
Across cultures, birds symbolise harmony, renewal, freedom, and good energy. When placed among plants, this piece becomes a quiet guardian of your green space — a reminder of life, movement, and gentle optimism.
For pots, garden beds, courtyards & balconies
The long stake allows you to anchor it directly into soil, whether indoors or outdoors. It works equally beautifully in:
• Terracotta pots
• Raised garden beds
• Hanging baskets
• Herb gardens
• Entryways & balconies
Even a breeze brings the bell to life, creating a soft, meditative sound.
Uniquely handmade — no two alike
Expect variations in the curve of the bird, the patina of the gold, the welding marks, and the bell’s finish. These details are the signature of the artisan who made your particular piece.
