This iconic symbol of New Zealand is lovingly hand crafted from local, ethically sourced NZ hardwood. Each kiwi I craft varies slightly due to the shade, grain and texture of its own wood; no two kiwis are the same! I use either NZ camphor, eucalyptus, or walnut timber and carefully carve the kiwi’s features by hand, paint with its very own tattoo, gently oil with a natural product, then finally add a touch of rainbow colour to give it an individual twist!

Kiwi size 19W x 15H x 3D cm

Every step is hand crafted, from the initial carving of the shape to the final natural oil coating.

Your kiwi is carefully presented with its own Taranaki Craft gift card, in a sturdy ‘bag’ made from FSC certified recycled card that is biodegradable and compostable.

A present with a difference. Your Kiwi will be unique, natural, local and is 100% New Zealand from start to finish.
