Finally, a cactus that won’t stab you, judge your over watering habits, or drop dead for no reason. Meet the Corten Cactus, a 1.5-metre tall statement piece forged in rugged, weather-loving Corten steel and built to outlast your gardening phase, your ex, and possibly civilisation itself.
This sculptural stunner brings the drama of the desert without the prickly attitude. Over time, it develops a rich, sunbaked patina, nature’s version of a designer tan, making it the ultimate low-maintenance outdoor hero. No water, no worries, just pure sculptural swagger.

About Corten:
When you first receive your Corten steel item (aka weathered steel), it may be a bright orange or sometimes a darker brown (depending on how much it’s weathered on its journey to you).
As it’s exposed to the elements, especially rain and dry spells, it naturally starts to rust. This forms a protective layer called a patina, which changes colour over time, from orange to deep brown, and eventually a rich, almost-black tone. Patina is a type of rust (but not a damaging kind). Unlike regular rust, this patina seals the surface and actually prevents further corrosion, which is why Corten is often used for outdoor structures and sculptures.
Each piece in our Corten range offers a unique aesthetic, adding character and depth to your outdoor spaces.
