The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A Toby figure is derived from 18th-century English Toby jugs, representing a seated character in period attire such as a tricorne hat and jacket. Molded into stone or concrete garden statues, these pieces form a traditional element of British garden folklore.

These ornaments are primarily made from cast concrete or reconstituted stone poured into heavy moulds. Surfaces were historically finished with exterior masonry paints, which wear down and patinate when subjected to weathering.

Authentic vintage cast stone displays organic weathering, paint flaking, lichen accumulation, and fine surface crazing from exposure to moisture and frost. Historical pieces also show subtle mold seam lines rather than crisp modern resin edges.

While intended for exterior placement near garden beds or walkways, stone ornaments can also be brought indoors to style sunrooms, conservatories, or entryways to introduce architectural texture.

Clean gently with water and a soft-bristled brush, avoiding chemical cleaners or pressure washers that strip remaining paint. During sub-zero winter weather, store the statue under cover or raise it off damp ground to avoid frost spalling.
