More About Robin Garden Ornaments

One of the most popular collections we have here at Fig and Rose is our collection of robin decor. Robins have long held a fascination for humans around the world, appearing in many a religion's tales and symbology.

For example, in Norse mythology the robin is aligned with Thor, the god of thunder. While there are some Christian tales that say a robin attempted to comfort Jesus during his crucifixion. For the secular world, robins have also been long loved by bird watchers and nature enthusiasts for their bright colours and uplifting song. 

Of course, the colourful red breast of the Robins also made them a perfect symbol for Christmas, appearing on postage stamps and greeting cards back in Victorian days and inspiring a tradition of giving robin christmas gifts to family and friends.

These days, one of the most popular associations that the stunning bird has is as a mark of remembrance. The quote "robins appear when loved ones are near" has become increasingly popular, deriving its origins from British folklore hundreds of years ago. Birds often symbolise the connection between air and the ground, heaven and earth, and the robin more than any other in British history. 

Whatever your reason for loving the gorgeous birds, you can bring them ever closer to you in your garden or home with our collection of robin ornaments. While we have a small amount of robin decor for inside the home such as ceramic robin decorations, kitchenware and other unusual robin gifts, we have a lot more designs for the outdoors, especially garden ornaments.

The robin garden ornaments include a wide range of options from the functional to the purely aesthetic. We have a robin bird bath that will invite visitors to your garden as well as robin bird feeders, and a stunning robin wind chime that tinkles with the bright sound mimicking the bird's song. 

The metal robin garden ornaments are available both painted and protected for a bold burst of colour, or in the popular ready-to-rust version which will develop a unique rustic patina when left to the British elements. One of the most popular garden robin ornaments is the robin on a spade garden stake.

As well as the metal robin for garden options there are also wooden robins to keep under cover or tucked into plant pots. These are on the smaller side, while there are also large robin ornaments for the garden like the wind rockers.

There are also decorations for the inside, with a range of robin wooden plaques with quotes written on them in beautiful cursive painted font, so you can hang them over your mantle or on any hook on the wall and bring the beautiful birds inside. 

One of our bestsellers is the pair of decorative robins, made of tin and hand finished to show off that beautiful red breast. These can be placed indoors or outdoors, or you could keep one for yourself and give another one to a friend who lives far away, reminding them that you'll always be near. 

The collection includes robin gifts for the whole year round - whether you're looking for robin gifts for her for Valentine's Day or Mother's Day, anniversaries or birthdays.
