Giant Colorful Giraffe Family Sculptures
This giraffe family group is built as a custom fiberglass sculpture, sized to your site. A typical adult stands 3 to 4 meters tall; family sets usually run 3 to 5 pieces. FibraCraft has made these in Quanzhou since 2017, with 500+ installed projects worldwide and 50+ in the USA. Every unit is made to order from your drawings or reference photos, MOQ 1 piece.
Design and customization
Send a sketch, a photo of a pose you like, or just overall height and how many giraffes you want. We return a dimensioned drawing for approval before tooling starts. Size drives cost more than anything else: a 2 m calf is a different build from a 4.5 m adult, because the steel armature and the number of mold sections go up with height. Detail level matters too. A smooth stylized body is faster to produce than carved fur texture, eyelashes, and separate ossicones. Tell us the viewing distance. A piece seen from 20 m at a park entrance does not need the same surface detail as one in a hotel lobby where people walk right up to it.
Build and materials
The shell is marine-grade unsaturated polyester resin with chopped strand mat and woven roving, laid up over a welded steel internal armature. Stainless hardware is used at all connection points. The gelcoat is UV-stable, which matters for pieces that sit in direct sun. Outdoor service life is 10 to 30+ years depending on climate and care, with a repaint or re-coat cycle of 5 to 7 years outdoors. Large pieces are built in sections that bolt together on site, so the armature design and the split lines are planned at the drawing stage, not after molding.
Finishes and color
We match any Pantone shade at 98% accuracy, then seal it with an automotive-grade polyurethane topcoat in gloss or matte. The solid-color look on this family group is straightforward to hold consistent across pieces, which is harder with airbrushed patterns. If you want a more natural coat pattern, we can do that too, but expect more finishing hours and a higher piece price. Finish choice also affects maintenance: gloss hides less dirt, matte shows fewer scratches. We can send color chips for sign-off before topcoat.
Budget, lead time, and shipping
Budget bands for planning: USD 1,200 to 5,000 for a single small piece, 4,500 to 12,000 for a mid-size installation, and 30,000 to 150,000 for a large multi-piece project. Mold cost for a typical single-piece sculpture runs USD 1,200 to 1,500. Production is 3 to 6 weeks for standard pieces and 12 to 16 weeks for oversized or multi-piece installations. Sea freight door-to-door DDP to the USA takes 5 to 9 weeks and costs about 80% less than air; air freight is 7 to 10 days. Payment is 30% deposit, balance before shipment. Warranty is 12 months against manufacturing defects. To scope your giraffe family, request a quote with your height and piece count and we will send an itemized USD quote within 24 hours.

Frequently Asked Questions
How tall can the giraffes be, and how does size affect price?
We build to your height, from a 2 m calf up to a 4.5 m adult. Price rises with height because the steel armature gets heavier and the mold splits into more sections. A single small piece typically lands in the USD 1,200 to 5,000 band; a multi-piece family set moves into the 4,500 to 12,000 band.
How do you anchor an outdoor giraffe sculpture?
Every piece ships with a welded steel base plate and stainless anchor points. We send a foundation drawing with the approved dimensions so your contractor can pour footings before delivery. For a 4 m adult in an exposed site, plan a concrete pad sized to the drawing and check local wind load rules. Installation takes 1 to 2 days for a family group.
What is the lead time and freight cost to the USA?
Standard pieces take 3 to 6 weeks in production; oversized or multi-piece sets take 12 to 16 weeks. Sea freight door-to-door DDP to the USA runs 5 to 9 weeks and costs about 80% less than air. Air freight is 7 to 10 days. We list mold, production, finish, and freight separately in a USD quote within 24 hours.

We ship to all 50 US states via sea freight (LCL or FCL) and air freight. Complete customs documentation — commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and certificate of origin — provided with every shipment. Import duties and taxes are the buyer's responsibility.
