The Caterpillar Garden Statue
Back to Garden SculpturesThe hookah-smoking Caterpillar is first introduced to the reader in chapter four of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. Fond of short, abrupt sentences and head-scratching questions, Alice doesn't quite know what to make of the three-inch Caterpillar on her first encounter – but he does manage to offer some sage advice on the secrets of shrinking and growing!
Available in both hot cast bronze and cold cast bronze.

Height: 39 inches / 100 cm

Inspired by Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Sir John Tenniel’s original illustrations.
-
A wonderfully enigmatic Wonderland character, full of presence and theatre.
-
A striking garden sculpture for lawns, borders and planted settings for gradual discovery.
-
A distinctive addition for collectors building a larger Alice in Wonderland sculpture collection.
