What’s the first thing you think of when you hear the words “garden statue”? Most people would say garden gnomes, but I think it’s time to phase them out and make room for more fun and creative statues. I personally don’t have a garden or lawn big enough to warrant statues in them, but if I did I know where I’d shop to find the ones for me. Design Toscano would be the place because of their many novelty garden statues. Many of their statues can be placed indoors as well.

One of my favorite types of lawn art and statues are the ones where it looks like part of them is under ground. The most traditional of these is the dragon or serpent that looks as though it’s swimming in water. Design Toscano has one called The Dragon of Bamberg Castle Moat. There is 2 1/2 feet of visible dragon that is almost lifelike with its scales, wings, and treacherous tail. Hand-finished in faux stone, it arrives in three quality, cast designer resin pieces. Keep in mind that you get a discount when you by two instead of one. Double dragon score!

In the same vein as the dragon swimming there is a rather novel idea of making it look like a person is swimming in your yard. This prim and proper lady’s name is Coco and it’s aptly named Coco Swims the Channel. This one is an exclusive design from Toscano and is made of 4 cast resin pieces. Believe it or not shipping costs are very fair as I personally thought they would be much more for shipping statues.

Another Toscano exclusive is Chauncey, the Caterpillar who was hand sculpted, cast in designer resin and hand painted is bright summer colors. This novelty garden statue is, as of this writing, currently on sale and if you buy more than one you get an even better deal. I’ve only touched on a small niche of what Toscano actually offers in garden statues so be sure to check out their entire collection of statues, furniture, art, jewelry and more.
