Nathalie French Provincial Hanging Bird Feeder, Antique Gold Roof with Leaf Detail

A fluted gold roof, two leafy stems, and a little bird keeping watch from the very top.

Nathalie is a hanging bird feeder in slim aged metal with an antique gold finish. A fluted conical roof shelters a small seed dish below, held on leaf-trimmed stems, with a little bird perched right at the top as a finial.

The roof keeps the worst of the rain off the seed, and the open dish makes it easy to fill and to watch. Hang it from a branch, a hook, or a verandah beam where the gold can catch the light.

Why we love it

• ◆ A roofed hanging feeder, the fluted canopy shelters the dish and gives it a little garden-folly charm.
• ◆ Antique gold aged metal, a warm, weathered finish that catches the light, a change from the white pieces.
• ◆ Leaf and bird detail, leafy stems frame the dish and a little bird sits atop the roof.
• ◆ Easy to fill and watch, the open dish tops up in seconds with seed or a little water.

How to style it

A few ways to place it:

• Hang it from a tree branch or hook with seed; see more in the garden and outdoor collection.
• Hang it where afternoon light can catch the antique gold and the leafy detail.
• Mix it with the white Dannielle and Fleur feeders for a gold-and-white grouping, or with the pedestal bird baths.
• Indoors, set the dish with a tealight or a few cut stems for a hanging ornament.

Care & Keeping

Wipe with a soft dry cloth, and empty and dry the dish between fills if used outdoors. The antique gold will weather and soften over time outside, which suits the look; bring it under cover to keep the finish brighter.

Because Nathalie is hand-finished, slight variations in patina, texture, and paint are natural and add to the unique character of each piece. Colour may also vary slightly between screens; all photography is taken in natural light.
