According to the website of de Winkel van Sinkel the caryatids are cast iron and made in England.
I love your blog and the wonderful photo’s of details like the gargoyles.
They are indeed cast iron. I blame sleep deprivation for why I had stone stuck in my head. 🙂 No matter what the material, though, they’re fantastic! So glad you like my blog. Thanks for stopping by!

I had that same stance when I had my picture taken in elementary school. 😀
If you’ve ever seen the Blink episode of Doctor Who these ladies are kind of scary :p

Utrecht parents tell their children that the statues will smile if you tickle their toes.
