Where are Metalbirds made?Updated 18 days ago

Right here in Australia.

Every Metalbird is proudly made local. That means if you buy in Australia, your bird is crafted in Australia (in a small family-owned factory in Melbourne, actually!)

We work with small, family-owned factories in each market, keeping jobs close to home while cutting down on international freight. That reduces our carbon footprint and gets your bird to you faster—without crossing half the planet to do it.

All Metalbirds are cut from premium Corten® steel (over 70% recycled), designed to weather beautifully outdoors. Our packaging is made from recycled cardboard with biodegradable inks. So when you get a Metalbird, you’re not just buying art—you’re backing local makers and sustainable craft.

We’re often asked if Metalbird ships internationally. The answer is “yes, but…”

Why shop local?

  1. Faster delivery & no surprise customs fees

  2. Supports local makers & family-owned workshops

  3. Reduces carbon footprint—because your bird isn’t flying halfway around the planet to perch in your garden

So yes, we’ll gladly send a Metalbird across the globe. But if there’s a local site near you, it’s better for the planet (and your patience) to shop there.
