Why we chose this range
"We tested dozens of dragon statues before selecting this range. The cast stone pieces from Melmar and Lucas Stone weather in UK conditions, and the detail on the hatchling scales is genuinely impressive for the price point. The aluminium dragon is in a class of its own at 45kg of solid metal. I've placed one at a customer's entrance and it stopped every visitor in their tracks."

Placement tip
Position larger dragon statues at entrance points, beside ponds, or at the end of a garden path where they create a centre piece. Hatchlings work best tucked among plants at ground level where visitors discover them unexpectedly. Read our guide to positioning garden ornaments for more ideas.
Matt's installation tip
The Heraldic Dragon weighs 78kg and the metal dragon weighs 45kg. Neither needs fixing down on a flat, level surface, their weight holds them stable in wind. But if you're placing a heavy dragon on soft ground, lay a 450mm x 450mm paving slab first so it doesn't sink over winter. I've seen a few beautiful statues lean after a wet autumn because the soil softened underneath them.
For the hatchlings at 4.7kg, consider using a thin layer of clear silicone under the base if positioning on a wall top or raised plinth. It prevents them walking off the edge in high winds without damaging the stone.

Matt's pick for dragon statuesBest For: A dramatic, traditional dragon as a garden centre piece Why I Recommend It: At 870mm tall and 78kg, the Heraldic Dragon has genuine presence. The cast stone detail on the wings and scales is the best I've seen at this price. It weathers too, after one season outdoors it looks like it's been there for centuries. Price: £275 |
Stone dragon statues weather naturally over their first year outdoors, developing a patina of moss and lichen that adds character. If you prefer to keep the original finish, seal with a clear stone sealant before placing outside. Read our frost protection guide for detailed care advice, or learn how to speed up the ageing process if you want that ancient look sooner.
For cleaning and long-term maintenance, our stone ornament care guide covers everything from removing green algae to resealing after winter.

Frequently asked questions
Yes, every dragon statue in our range is frost-proof for UK winters. The cast stone pieces are made from a high-density aggregate mix that resists water absorption, so they won't crack when temperatures drop below freezing. The cast aluminium dragon is naturally immune to frost damage. We've tested all our stone dragons through multiple UK winters without any cracking or flaking.
Dragon hatchlings weigh 4.7kg; the Heraldic Dragon weighs 78kg. The six hatchling designs are light enough to pick up and reposition. The Draco dragon and Heraldic Dragon are significantly heavier and will need two people to move into position. The metal dragon weighs 45kg. All are heavy enough to stay stable in normal UK wind conditions without fixing down.
Stone dragons come in Sandstone, Stone (grey), Cotswold, and Burnt Umber. The hatchling range offers Sandstone and Stone finishes. Draco is available in Aged Cotswold and Burnt Umber. The Heraldic Dragon comes in Aged Cotswold or Burnt Umber. Every finish develops a natural patina of moss and lichen over its first year outdoors, which adds to the aged character.
Place large dragons at entrance points, beside ponds, or at path endpoints. The Heraldic Dragon and metal dragon work best as standalone centre pieces where they can be seen from a distance. Dragon hatchlings look best tucked among plants at ground level, on stone walls, or in rockery pockets where visitors discover them unexpectedly. Avoid placing heavy stone dragons directly on soft soil, use a paving slab base to prevent sinking.
Dragon statues range from £59 for a hatchling to £999 for the metal dragon. Stone hatchlings start at £59 each in either Sandstone or Stone finish. The mid-range Draco is £169 and the Heraldic Dragon is £275. The premium cast aluminium dragon with hand-applied bronze patina is £999. All prices include Free UK Delivery.
Yes, the six hatchling designs are made to be collected together. Each hatchling has a different pose, Sleeping, Smiling, Proud, Small, and two standard Hatchlings. They share the same 130mm height and 200mm x 200mm footprint, so they look consistent when grouped. Many customers arrange three or four along a garden wall or window sill. At £59 each, a set of all six costs £354.
Sealing is optional and depends on the look you prefer. Unsealed stone dragons develop a natural patina of moss and lichen within 6-12 months, which many customers prefer for the aged effect. If you want to keep the original clean finish, apply a clear stone sealant before placing the statue outdoors. Reapply annually after cleaning. The cast aluminium dragon needs no sealing or maintenance at all.
