  1. CARE AND CLEANING

Please keep away from high humidity and moisture such as steam.


Be aware of how you hang a sculpture on your wall, especially a X-board (white board) sculpture and follow hanging instructions carefully. Please ensure that the wall-mounted sculpture you have is securely hooked into the base. An incorrectly hung sculpture may fall off the wall. Please also ensure and that it is not leaning too far forward as a result of a nail sticking further than 5mm out of the wall. This causes wear on the sculpture. Please refer to 'Repairs' below if you have experienced damaged or wear caused by incorrect hanging.


Dust: Most pieces that make up a sculpture sit vertically rather than horizontally, and so collect very little or no dust.


Cleaning for X-board and bamboo:

Dust with a dry or very lightly damp cloth.

If you are living in a very damp/humid area and detect signs of mould on the bamboo, wipe it with a mild bleach solution and dry surface thoroughly. If it persists, or to prevent further mould growth, please speak to your local hardware store about applying a protective oil to the bamboo.


Cleaning for suede and paperboard:

Dust or brush with a soft brush.


All Head On Design products are packaged in Head On Design packaging.


  1. REPAIRS

Be very aware of how you hang a sculpture on your wall, especially a X-board (white board) sculpture. Please ensure that the wall-mounted sculpture you have is securely hooked into the base. An incorrectly hung sculpture may fall off the wall. Please also ensure and that it is not leaning too far forward as a result of a nail sticking further than 5mm out of the wall. This causes wear on the sculpture. If part of a sculpture needs replacing due to damage or wear, Head On Design will be happy to replace a particular piece(s) and the cost of replacement and postage will be charged.


  1. PACKAGING AND ASSEMBLY

Most sculptures come flat-packed, with the exception of the bamboo stands, which are pre-assembled. All flat-packed sculptures come with clear diagrammatic instructions on how to assemble/fit and hang (the heads). Please follow hanging instructions carefully, and in particular, please ensure you a) hook the sculpture securely into the base and b) make sure the nail is not sticking further than 5mm from the wall


Assembly: If you’re concerned that you may not get it 100% right, you’re welcome to send a photo once you’ve assembled it and we can check whether it has been assembled correctly. Please send to this email address: jo@headondesign.co.za


  1. SIZES

Trophy Heads: How we measure height (H) vs. width (w) vs. Depth (d)


Height = from bottom of the base to the highest point such as the tip of the horns.

Width = the widest left-to-right points such as earspan.

Depth = from the wall to the furthest point from the wall, usually the tip of the nose or in the case of the elephant, the tip of the tusks.


  1. MATERIAL

X-BOARD: (also called Xanita) Made from 100% recycled cardboard boxes, is proudly South African and is 100% recyclable. Despite being a recycled material, these sculptures will last for years. X-board is strong yet light-weight, of a high quality, with a white semi-gloss paper finish and corrugated edging to add definition even when hung on a white wall.


BAMBOO: Bamboo is nature's new wonder plant, and gives these 'trophy' head sculptures a beautiful grain texture against any interior wall, whilst exuding an Afro-chic elegance. Bamboo can be grown in overgrazed and over farmed soils, without fertilizers or pesticides. It consumes very little water and is also stronger than most timbers.


SUEDE: The suede is sourced from a reputable leather company and has been tanned to international standards and is of a high quality.


PAPERBOARD: (mini heads only) A 1.2mm thick paperboard made from recycled paper. The board is a white to off-white colour and has a soft felt-like texture.


  1. COMMISSIONS / BESPOKE PIECES

Head On Design has done commissioned pieces for ad campaigns, shop displays, charity / conservation events, conferences and weddings.


Please note that these pieces take time to design, test and create, so as a general rule, a lead time of at least 6 weeks is necessary for completion.
