Welcome column 1 m – decorative rust column with laser-cut lettering
SKU: 1000331
Welcome column (1 m) made of Corten steel – premium rust décor column with laser-cut lettering
A greeting everyone understands: WELCOME – lasered vertically from top to bottom into the straight, solid column (1 m high, 20 × 20 cm). The clean typography and minimalist form make it a modern alternative among welcome columns: an architectural greeting at the entrance, driveway or patio door – in a warm decorative rust patina that goes equally well with brick, wood and plaster.
⭐ Vertically laser-cut – the modern welcome column
The lettering runs the full height of the column – this creates a calm, high-quality look, a bit like a design object. The top of the column is closed: the flat surface is perfect as a pedestal, for example for a planted bowl, a lantern or pumpkin decor in autumn.

💡 Prefer your own name instead of WELCOME? Our personalized column with custom text has exactly the same dimensions in the 100 cm size (20 × 20 × 100 cm) – just with your name, quote or date.
🌙 A welcome that lights up in the evening
The letters are fully cut through and the column is open at the bottom: with an LED string light or candle inside, the WELCOME shines warmly outward after dark – greeting guests on their way to the front door.

🛠️ Material & workmanship
- made from 1 mm genuine Corten steel – welded, folded and rusted by hand
- the WELCOME lettering is precisely laser-cut
- from our workshop in the Upper Palatinate – Made in Germany
- Corten steel originally comes from bridge and facade construction and is designed to last for decades
- each patina develops individually – no column is like the other
🌿 Weatherproof & durable
Beneath the rusty surface, corten steel forms a dense barrier layer that stops deeper corrosion. The column therefore stands outside year after year – through frost, rain and summer heat – and only becomes more beautiful. It needs no care.
💡 Styling tip
The Welcome column has the greatest impact where guests arrive: right next to the front door or at the start of the garden path. In the evening, place an LED string of lights inside from below – and the closed top surface is perfect for a planted bowl or a lantern as the crowning touch.
🎁 For which occasion?
As a gift for a housewarming and new home, the welcome column is a classic – timeless, language-independent and ready to use straight away. Also lovely as a wedding gift for the first home together or as a permanent welcome for a holiday apartment or guest house.
❓ Frequently asked questions
Can I illuminate the column?

Will the column be delivered fully rusted?

Is the lettering also available in German or with custom text?
Yes: as the Bavarian “Griaß Di” column, the northern German “Moin” column – and with your own text as a personalized column in the same design.
