A pīwakawaka fans its tail among flowering branches, with bright white details contrasting against warm timber.
In New Zealand Fantail / Pīwakawaka 3D Layered Silhouette Timber Wall Art, the bird’s spread tail gives the composition a lively sense of movement. Fine feather markings and small blossoms emerge through the timber cutwork, standing out against a dark grey woodgrain background.
Designed, made and finished in Andrew’s Helensville workshop, the piece combines a walnut-stained birch plywood overlay, white cast-acrylic middle layer and stained timber backing. The three layers create depth and shadow, with details changing subtly as the piece is viewed from different angles.
Its compact size would suit an entryway, kitchen or reading corner, bringing natural warmth and a familiar touch of Aotearoa’s birdlife. Presented in a protective gift box, it also makes a thoughtful gift.
