A pair of flamingos cast in antique gold metal, heads bowed in conversation, tails feathered out behind them.
The Plumier Pair is a set of two flamingo floor sculptures finished in a soft antique gold patina with darker silver-grey rubbed into the recesses. Each bird is built up from individually cut and shaped metal feathers, layered like real plumage across the body, wings and tail. The graceful S-curve of the necks brings them together as a courting pair.
One bird stands taller (86 cm), the other slightly shorter (76.5 cm), so they read naturally as a couple rather than a matching pair of bookends. They balance on twisted iron legs set into oval bases, free-standing and ready to display straight out of the box. Use them either side of a sideboard, in a bay window, beside a fireplace, or as a focal point in an entryway.

Stylist's Tip
The pair looks most romantic when their heads are angled toward each other rather than facing the same way. Position the larger bird slightly behind the smaller, with both heads turning inward, to recreate the courting pose from the photographs. The negative space between the two heads is part of the composition.
Care & Keeping
Wipe gently with a soft dry cloth or feather duster. The cut metal feathers have small edges, so avoid pressing hard or using rough cloths that could catch. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, polishes and abrasives, which will strip the antique gold patina. If displaying outdoors, expect the finish to develop a softer natural patina over time, which is part of the aged character of these pieces.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are both birds included in the listing?
Yes. The Plumier Pair is a set of two sculptures sold together, one larger (86 cm) and one smaller (76.5 cm). Both are included for the listed price.
Can they be used outdoors?
Yes. They are suitable for both indoor and outdoor display. Like all decorative metal pieces, the antique gold finish will continue to develop a soft natural patina over time when exposed to weather, which adds to the aged character.
Are they free-standing or do they need fixing?
They are free-standing. Each bird is balanced on twisted iron legs set into a flat oval base. No screws, anchors or fixings required. Place straight onto a level floor or surface.
How are they packaged for delivery?
Each bird is individually boxed in its own protective carton with foam padding around the cut metal feathers and slim legs. Both birds are dispatched together. Combined gross weight 6 kg.
Will every pair look identical to the photos?
Each piece is hand-finished, so the patina, gold-to-grey shadowing and feather alignment will vary slightly between birds. These differences are characteristic of the hand finish and are not faults.
Each piece is hand-finished, so small variations in patina, finish and feather alignment are part of their character. Furniture and styling props shown are not included. Colours may appear slightly different on screen.

I am disappointed with the size of the piece although it is my error as I did not take on the measurements that are there. The photo I think is a little misleading though. I still like the piece so I am going to keep, but I will be more careful in future.
These mirrors are just gorgeous. This isn’t the first time I’ve purchased from this beautiful store and won’t be the last. Their products are great quality and extremely good value. They are lovely people to deal with too.
I am about to get a tradesman to put this exquisite piece of art near my front door.
Happy to send photos after he has placed it there.
However, in the meantime I must say that I am overjoyed by the quality and beauty of this item.....
So thank you.
Although there was a minor delay ( I gather a mixup with delivery) I am thrilled with the transformation the mirror had given my small balcony .
It has added a dimension and warmth to my small space.
I love my The Jardin Trio French Country Flower Wall Decor Set of 3, Embossed Metal. They are just perfect for the spot I wanted them for. They match perfectly and blend in with the Muriel wallpaper feature wall that complements the same tones and brings character to a space that was lacking a touch of “chic” so thank you Chateau living , you delivered on quality , price and service! Very happy, indeed!
Just another great buy! Very, very happy! They look so good in front of the church window and the cherub which I have also purchased from Chateau living.
Exactly what I was looking for! I felt something in that corner with the long, white sheer curtains was needed to complete it ans make it special! What a great buy! Its stunning! It's even more beautiful than how I pictured it.
Love it! Love it! Love it! I am so in love with the church mirror, the two crown candle holders and the little cherub! I had to wait a long time for the cherub though! He was sold out and I put in a pre order. The waiting time was sooo worth it. The cherub completes the white clean look that I have tried to achieve in my home office. The Church window has the same pattern as the electric heater which I have purchased somewhere else. Again once more, very happy with my purchases from Chateaux living!
I have seen this mirror already quite some time ago and could not get it out of my mind. I have finally ordered it! It's stunning! Its very unique and very special as it comes with a separate hook to put on the wall! Gorgeous! So beautiful!
I have actually just received my second one! I have loved my first one so much and I kept moving it from the living room to the guest bedroom, so I decided it's easier just to order a second one. I absolutely adore them! In both of them I have put a fairy light and some greenery which looks as if it flows out of the handbag.
I have bought many things recently from Chateau Living, as I want to stage my house. I love each and every item! Every piece is of high quality and of exquisite style. Each piece looks expensive although I find the pricing actually very affordable.
What I also love is how careful everything is packed. The Church window even arrived in a special made box! Very impressive!
The only negative side is: It is a bit addictive! I want everything in their store!
Thank you so much for your extremely prompt and safe delivery of my beautiful rabbit!! I fell in love with him as soon as I saw him and am not disappointed 🙏🙏🙏🙏
