Rollo is a broad, chunky barn owl sculpture with a quietly inquisitive look, his head turned a touch to the side so his black eyes catch you from within a heart-shaped face. The facial disc is combed in fine lines around a long, tilted beak, while the body is left in the warm golden tone of natural cedar.

What sets Rollo apart is his wings: deep, layered feather ridges burnt jet black, so the dark scorched edges stand out boldly against the pale, hand-gouged chest and back. The long tail tapers to a point, and his strong talons grip a wide, ringed log top above a bark-carved base. At 660mm tall and 300mm across, he is a sturdy, substantial wooden owl for a gatepost, patio, front step or garden wall. Like every carving we make, Rollo is chainsaw carved in the Forest of Dean and is one of a kind, a handmade garden ornament or gift for an owl lover.

Let Rollo bring a touch of nature’s wisdom to your home!

Care Instructions

Wipe with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Place outside in FULL SHADE on a well drained spot.

This Owl is cut from a log which will over time dry out – cracking may occur and this should be viewed as a feature and not a fault.

To significantly reduce the risk of cracking please place your sculpture outside in full shade on a well drained spot.

In subsequent years the sculpture should be treated with preservative to ensure a prolonged life.

Questions about Rollo the Barn Owl

Is there a guarantee if my carving splits?
Yes. Every carving is cut from a single log and can split a little as the wood dries. If a split spoils your enjoyment of it, we repair it free of charge for the first 12 months, as long as it has been kept outside in full shade, away from direct sun and heat. After 12 months we can still repair it for a small charge, and you pay the carriage. Why carvings crack.
Where should I keep my carving outside?
Stand it in full shade on well-drained ground, away from direct sunlight and any heat source, and treat it with wood preservative from time to time. That is also the condition of our 12-month split repair guarantee. Full care guide.
How long does delivery take and what does it cost?
Delivery is free to mainland UK addresses. Most carvings are dispatched within 5 to 10 working days of payment, often sooner, and we email you a tracking number when it is on its way. It travels in a cardboard box packed with bubble wrap and packing noodles. We can't deliver to Ireland or overseas.
Can I collect it instead?
Yes, collection is free from near Longhope, Gloucestershire. Tick “I'll collect it myself” in your basket before checking out and we will get in touch to arrange a day and time.
Can I return it?
Yes. If you change your mind, tell us within 14 days of receiving it, then send it back within 14 days. You pay the carriage for an unwanted return and we refund the way you paid within 14 days of getting it back. If it arrives damaged, send us photos and your order details and we collect and repair it for free, or replace it if needed. Full details are on our delivery and returns page. Delivery & returns.
