When I first came across the amazing bronze Hoblins, it was definitely a 'WOW' moment!! I was at a garden trade show in the NEC, Birmingham, and frankly was getting a little bored wandering
around looking at endless pond features, decking and pretty slabs. Then my eye was caught by a bronze Hoblin, lurking at the side of a trade stand. I just had to find out more about them, and the
sculptor that made them. They are made by a very nice guy called Julian Jeffery, and I decided then and there that I wanted them on my website, even though they're not wildlife-related. Lucky
I do garden features too, I thought!! Anyway, since then they have been really popular, and I have supplied them all over Europe, with several clients buying more bronze Hoblins to add to their
collection. They are also a popular birthday or Christmas present!!
Take a look at the photographs below, and order your Hoblin now - you won't regret it.
If you need any help, just call me on 0333 9000 927.
Best Regards, Martin.

Bronze Hoblin Pip
Pip appears as dusk falls, playing his bamboo flute and gracefully dancing amongst the trees and shrubs. He plays a soft lullaby and soon all the birds in the trees above are huddling together,
slowly drifting off to sleep. As dawn appears again on the horizon, Pip appears again, this time his music is more lively and he springs around the garden as the wildlife around him awakes and stirs
in the morning dew.
