About Our Angel Garden Statues
Our angel garden statues are hand-cast from reconstituted stone with a white painted finish. We stock three pieces: the Angel of Peace (£215), the Praying Angel (£340), and the Gemini Boy (£119). The Divona angels stand 60–80 cm tall and weigh 12–18 kg. The Gemini Boy by Lucas Stone is a smaller cherub at 45 cm.
All three are frost-proof to -20°C. The white finish is UV-stable and designed to stay bright through UK summers. Over time, moss may settle in the recesses. Most customers leave it for a natural aged look. If you prefer the clean white, a soft brush and soapy water each spring keeps them fresh.
"Angel statues are our most popular memorial and remembrance pieces. Customers often place them beside a favourite bench or under a tree. The Praying Angel in particular sells for gardens of remembrance. We get thank-you messages from families who find comfort seeing it through the kitchen window every morning."

Quick Guide: The Angel of Peace is a standing figure with outstretched wings. The Praying Angel kneels with hands clasped. The Gemini Boy is a seated winged cherub in a natural stone tone rather than white. Choose white for a bright focal point or natural stone for a piece that blends into planting.
Matt's Installation Tip
Angel statues look best raised off the ground. Set the piece on a stone plinth or capped pier. A 30–40 cm plinth lifts a 60 cm angel to eye level. This makes the detail visible and keeps the base clear of splashback from rain and soil. Use a bead of exterior silicone between the statue and the plinth top to stop wind rocking it.

Raised positions and quiet garden corners work best. Set the statue on a plinth beside a bench or under a tree. Angel statues also suit the end of a pathway as a destination point.
