Give your garden sculpture a strong, natural foundation with the character of genuine recycled Australian railway sleepers.
Our Rustic Timber Plinths are handcrafted from reclaimed hardwood railway sleepers, creating a striking base for displaying Corten steel sculptures and garden art. The warmth and weathered character of the timber pairs beautifully with Corten steel, helping elevate the sculpture while keeping a natural, architectural feel.
No two plinths are exactly alike. Years of exposure and use leave each railway sleeper with its own grain, colour variations, bolt holes, checking and weathered markings – features that make every plinth genuinely unique.

Genuine recycled timber
As these plinths are made from genuine recycled railway sleepers, variations are an intentional part of the design. Natural cracks, old bolt holes, knots, saw marks, colour variations and other signs of the timber's previous life may be present.
Rather than imperfections, these details give each plinth its individual character and ensure no two are ever exactly the same.
Pair your sculpture with a Rustic Timber Plinth to create a distinctive garden feature with height, presence and character.
