Tell us a story!
One of the most memorable guests at the Hatter’s Tea Party, the March Hare is an enigmatic mix of both the absurd and the philosophical—with a penchant for offering wine when there isn't any! Like the Hatter, the March Hare makes his first appearance in Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland.
Available in both hot cast bronze and cold cast bronze.
(Please note the Dormouse is not included)
The perfect Tea Party garden guest
From the Mad Hatter's Tea Party, a bronze garden water fountain of The March Hare. This Alice in Wonderland water feature is inspired by Lewis Carroll's original novel and the hand-drawn illustrations of Sir John Tenniel. Choose either hot cast bronze or cold cast bronze and start creating your very own garden Wonderland. Perfect as a patio feature or outdoor centrepiece; a true gift for book lovers!
FAQs
Do I need to change the water in my Mad March Hare water fountain?
Yes, absolutely! We would advise changing the water in your Mad March Hare bronze water feature at least once a month. Cleaner water will result in a slower spread of algae and less chance of your filters becoming blocked. At the heart of every mad tea party is a healthy supply of clean water!
Can you leave your Mad March Hare bronze water feature outside during winter?
Properly draining off any water left in the pipes in your metal Mad March Hare garden water feature before the arrival of frost is a must to ensure its preservation during winter. Failing to do so could lead to the freezing and expansion of the remaining water, potentially causing the pipes to burst and resulting in damage to the castings.
Is it possible to have my Mad March Hare bronze water feature refurbished?
Yes, certainly! Due to the unique natural properties of bronze; a high copper content and an indomitable want to oxide over time—eventually, the ‘living’ surface of your sculpture will transform into a stunning rich shade of verdigris. If you're looking for a way to slow down and even reverse this process, we can carry out a tried-and-test bronze water feature refurbishment process on your Mad March Hare water feature.
Will the running water cause my bronze Mad March Hare sculpture to rust?
No, not a chance. Bronze contains little or no iron, so your Mad March Hare sculpture will remain rust-free!
