Design Toscano Lion of Florence Sentinel Indoor/Outdoor Animal Statue, 28 Inch Tall, Cast Stone Resin, Antique Stone Finish

I absolutely love this lion statue! I wasn't sure what to expect when I ordered it, but it's definitely exceeded my expectations.The first thing that impressed me was the quality. It's really weighty and feels substantial, and the stone finish looks incredibly realistic. It doesn't look like some cheap plastic garden ornament at all. It actually looks like a real stone statue, especially from a distance.I placed mine on the side of my entry, and it definitely makes a statement. My neighbors have all commented on how much they like it, and it for sure adds a touch of drama to my house.The size is also perfect. It's not too small that it gets lost, but not overwhelmingly large either. It's just the right size to make an impact without looking out of place.Overall, I'm absolutely thrilled with this purchase. It's a beautiful, well-made statue that's added a touch of elegance to my garden. If you're looking for a high-quality piece that will surely turn heads, then this lion statue is definitely for you!

I bought two of these Lions (early August, 2022), with the idea of placing them at the entrance to the gravel driveway of a property I was restoring, for a friend, in Annapolis, Maryland.Upon delivery, I arranged to have a 4" X 4" diameter hole drilled into the base of the hollow statues. We then mixed some cement (two 80 lb. bags for each statue) and, upon tipping the lions upside-down, and leaning them up against a storage shed, filled them with concrete. The next day, the cement having dried, we stood them right-side up. Then, we spray-painted them with a bronze-copper tone, followed by two coats of a clear protectant/sealant, to protect against the coming cold weather.Once this process was completed, each lion weighed 224 lbs.As they come with a nice 'base' already attached, they were set to be placed, facing forward, on each side of the entrance to the driveway to the property I was having restored, for a close friend, on the shore of the South River.Within three days, 15-16 neighbors who pass this place on their daily walks made a point to stop over, and complimented me on this astoundingly beautiful addition to their block. Several asked where I found them, and two people - who were the guests of some neighbors down the street - told me that they planned to order them, and follow the steps described, above.Believe me, get two of these majestic critters and do as we did, you won't regret it! These 'Guard Cats' are a marvelous addition to this place, and the compliments are still coming in - on a regular basis.TODD BLODGETT

I love this piece of decor. I think ordering the stand to display it on is a must. It makes it feel much more grand and dramatic. A beautiful, subtle, yet unexpected and unique addition to the landing on the stairs. Great value

We love the pair of lions. They look great and has a white marble finish. Heavy enough that the wind will not be an issue. They are tall enough that we don’t need a pedestal. They were very well packaged.

This turned out so perfect for my backyard. The only thing I wish is that it was heavier.

I decided to spray paint mine to gold color. It looks beautiful and I love ❤️ I also like the size.

I love this serious lion. He currently sits by my front door and keeps watch. Makes me smile

These are not as large as Amazon is telling you they are. I just received 2 of them and they are only 16" x 12". Still nice statues. We just now have to build bases for them to accommodate the space we bought them for. However, they are really 28" tall.
