With a length of 160 centimetres, CROCO is one of the largest in the Borowski OUTDOOR OBJECTS collection. CROCO actually has everything that characterizes a crocodile: a long body, a strong tail, a serrated dorsal crest and sharp teeth. At least almost. Because there is a small gap in its teeth: Only a single tooth remains at the front. What would probably be a problem with a real crocodile is part of its charm here. The cone-shaped “style eyes” further reinforce this impression and turn the large reptile into a lovable garden dweller with a character all of its own.
Whether among the grasses, on the banks of a pond or as a solitaire on a lawn – CROCO attracts attention. During the day, the bright green tones of the glass and the rusty patina of the metal body are fascinating. At nightfall, the object reveals another interesting side: the crocodile is illuminated from the inside so that the head and tail shimmer green and the light also shines outwards through the triangular openings in the scales. The light traces the contours of the scales and gives the object an almost mysterious appearance. The subtle lighting effect of the two lamps mounted in the center of the object’s body enriches the garden in a discreet yet fascinating way.
CROCO appeals to people who enjoy unusual garden art and also have a sense of humor. Naturally, the crocodile sculpture impresses with its size, artistic finish and quality craftsmanship. But those who choose CROCO usually don’t just opt for a crocodile, but for precisely this crocodile. The gap in the teeth, the stylish eyes and the slightly mischievous appearance give the elaborately crafted art object a likeable side. CROCO doesn’t take itself too seriously – and that’s exactly what makes it so endearing.

The production is done by hand, each glass object is unique. Slight deviations in color, shape and dimensions are therefore possible.
The outdoor facilities of the Hotel Einstein at the Römerpark in Andernach are designed as a landscape and sculpture park and invite you to stroll and marvel.
A permanent exhibition of Borowski OUTDOOR OBJECTS has been created around the hotel. The numerous sculptures and light objects provide artistic enjoyment and fit perfectly into the overall picture of the complex.
Every outdoor space is enhanced by light – it creates a sense of safety and adds a special atmosphere.
Our light objects are designed as outdoor sculptures and easily withstand the effects of wind and weather all year round. Of course, they can also be used indoors.
Add a touch of enchantment to your favorite spot in the garden or on your balcony! Whether as a cheerful eye-catcher among your flower beds, a striking art piece on the lawn, or playfully placed in a tree or on your house wall – there are no limits to your creativity. In summer, they invite you to linger with their ambient glow. In winter, they defy frost and darkness, bringing cheer with their vibrant colors and warm light.
The light objects come with a 6-meter outdoor cable.
Bulbs are included.
Each object shown here reflects the craftsmanship of our glassmakers. What appears lighthearted, playful, and full of color is in fact created through a demanding and often physically challenging production process. Today, only a small number of people and glass studios worldwide still master the traditional art of glassmaking.
At the Borowski Glass Studio, nearly all known techniques of hot and cold glassworking can be applied. This exceptional range of possibilities allows our artists to continuously develop new ideas and bring even highly ambitious, experimental visions to life in glass.
The brothers Stani-Jan, Wiktor, and Pawel Borowski learned to work with the blowpipe and molten glass from the ground up. While Wiktor primarily oversees sales, Pawel and Stani-Jan still work daily at the furnace in the glass studio themselves.
As each object is mouth-blown and traditionally handcrafted, slight variations in color, shape, and size are unavoidable. Small air inclusions in the glass are characteristic features of genuine handcrafted studio glass and should not be regarded as flaws, but rather as signs of its individual production process.
The friendly figures and characters of the OUTDOOR OBJECTS ensure “fabulous” encounters in gardens and parks – in the true sense of the word. As if from another world chameleons, birds, armadillos, and all sorts of creatures appear – bringing a little piece of their world into our own. The OUTDOOR OBJECTS create a wonderful link to their environment – inviting their owners to smile, dream and linger. These highly individual, happy visitors will enliven your garden or balcony and give your favourite spot a very special magic.
The OUTDOOR OBJECTS are weatherproof and can stand outside all year long. All these art objects are handmade and hand blown with the utmost care.
When fastening your object, you should make sure that it stands securely and does not wibble or tip over, even in wind or knocks. Use the mounting eyelets we provide for this purpose. Position your object so that it is safe from falling rocks or braking branches. Keep in mind that the objects are very heavy due to their quality and protruding parts (e.g. beaks, eyes, ears, tails, crowns) are not suitable as handles.
