Description
For the grove, the orchard, or the cellar door with olive oil tastings on weekends. 'The Olive Grove' is a wide-arched property sign draped in olive branches with neat orchard rows along the bottom, plasma-cut from a single sheet of 2mm Australian steel. Your property name cut through in elegant stencil lettering - refined enough for a cellar door, tough enough for a farm gate.
The gentle arch and olive branch detail give this one a Mediterranean feel that suits the Australian olive belt perfectly - from the Adelaide Hills to the Hunter Valley. Branches hang naturally from the top frame with their distinctive narrow leaves and fruit, all connected and solid. The orchard rows along the bottom add depth and tell the story of what is behind the gate. Weathering steel brings warmth, or go black powdercoat for a contemporary grove entrance, or white for that provincial look.
Mount it at the grove entrance, the farm gate, or above the tasting room door. Pre-drilled holes for easy installation. Built to age as gracefully as a good olive tree - decades and decades of character.

Care Tips
To ensure your custom steel artwork remains a beautiful centerpiece for years to come, here are some tailored care tips based on the material you chose.
For Corten Steel (Natural Rust Finish)
Corten steel is designed to evolve. Its appearance will change over time as it develops a protective "patina" (the rust layer).
- Embrace the Process: The rust layer is a natural shield that protects the steel from deep corrosion. You don’t need to treat or oil it.
- Prevent Staining: During the first few months, rain or high humidity can cause some "run-off" of the rust. If hanging indoors or against a light-colored wall, ensure the spacers (standoffs) are used to keep the piece from touching the wall directly.
- Cleaning: Simply hose it down or wipe it with a damp cloth if it becomes dusty. Avoid using soaps or chemicals, as these can disrupt the natural weathering process.
For Painted Mild Steel (Modern Look)
The painted finish provides a sleek, protective barrier against the elements.
- Gentle Cleaning: Use a soft, microfiber cloth to remove dust. For fingerprints or smudges, a damp cloth with a tiny drop of mild dish soap is all you need.
- Avoid Abrasives: Never use steel wool, scouring pads, or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can scratch or dull the paint finish.
- Touch-ups: If the paint is ever chipped by accident, we recommend a small dab of exterior-grade metal touch-up paint to prevent moisture from reaching the raw steel beneath.
General Handling & Safety
- Watch the Edges: Because your piece is hand-cut from 2.0mm steel, some edges may be sharp. We recommend wearing gloves while unboxing and hanging the piece.
- Secure Mounting: Steel is durable but heavy. Always use the provided hardware and ensure you are mounting into a secure surface (stud, brick, or using the correct anchors for plasterboard).
- Environment: While Australian steel is incredibly tough, pieces hung in high-salinity environments (right on the coast) may age faster. A quick rinse with fresh water once or twice a year will help remove salt buildup.
