What
are the ornaments made from ? |
| |
Ornaments are cast in
plaster (for indoor use) and
concrete (for outdoor and indoor use). |

| |
>>
Are they frost or weather-proof ? |
| |
The concrete items are
frost and weather-proof in normal conditions. Plaster items
may, with care, be placed outside in a sheltered and dry
spot. For maximum protection, paint the plaster pieces all
over with varnish or sealant before
putting outside. |
