Timeless Piece of Art

As Seen In
The Pīwakawaka is as quintessentially Kiwi as…well, the Kiwi! All over New Zealand, gardens are alive with the rustles and squeaks of Fantails, their titular tails visible in brief flashes of white. It was a no-brainer to make a wooden Fantail, with such a charming and instantly familiar shape, they’re a dream to design, and even more fun to put together! Our Pīwakawaka is cut to ensure that assembling it is as playful as the bird itself, and the end result is a work of art that makes any house feel like a home.
Assemble using the instructions provided, and have fun with it!
As always, these birds are produced locally and ethically, cut in an NZ family owned workshop from FSC certified wood, sourced from sustainably grown forests in Nelson. The perfect gift for anyone who needs a burst of creative energy, a new work of art in their life, or just loves native birds!

Our birds are designed with 3mm CorTen steel to form a protective patina that deepens and strengthens with the seasons. This patina will deepen in shade over the years until it reaches a deep brown/charcoal black hue.
This self-sealing aspect of CorTen steel provides a quality guarantee of up to 100 years, ensuring that our product lasts a lifetime and remains completely corrosion resistent.
What might initially resemble generic rust is simply the air and water-tight patina forming over a six month period, so don’t panic! Your Metalbird is doing exactly what it’s been designed to do, and this patina will protect the steel from any further damage and disintegration.
CorTen steel does not require any treatments, oils or chemical additives and is therefore extremely environmentally friendly.

MADE FROM PREMIUM CORTEN STEEL
Corten Steel or ‘Weathering Steel’ is used in high-end exterior architecture, for good reason. Exposed to the elements, within weeks it develops a patina that seals the steel and preserves it for decades. It also leaves a beautiful even colouring that will get darker over the years.
