Graceful Reeds in stainless steel 🌱

This Raupō (bulrush) sculpture has just been sent off to a coastal property, with stainless steel chosen as the perfect option for a water-side environment. Unlike our popular corten steel finish, stainless steel won’t rust, making it ideal for coastal locations while still bringing the same elegant, sculptural feel.

Available in 1.5m, 1.8m, and 2m heights, our Graceful Reeds are designed to bring a sense of calm, movement, and balance to outdoor spaces.

We’re still buzzing after our kārearea encounter šŸ¦…

While in Blenheim for the sculpture auction, Jen and Steve had the incredible opportunity to experience a close-up encounter with Scout, one of the Trust’s beautiful falcons.

This intimate experience included an educational talk about the kārearea and the important conservation work happening through the Trust, a behind-the-scenes aviary tour, and the unforgettable moment of meeting Scout up close while wearing a falconry glove. Seeing every detail of this remarkable bird firsthand was truly something special.

For us as artists, experiences like this are invaluable. Observing the anatomy, movement, feather detail, and presence of these birds up close helps continue informing the sculptures we create with such care and respect.

If you’re ever in Blenheim, we can highly recommend booking yourself a kārearea encounter. It was magical, moving, and something we won’t forget anytime soon.

What an incredible evening for the kārearea šŸ¦…

We’re so grateful to everyone who came along, placed bids, supported the auction, and helped make the Kārearea Falcon Trust fundraiser such a success. Together, thousands of dollars were raised to help protect New Zealand’s last remaining bird of prey, a species that is sadly still highly endangered.

We were thrilled to see 4 Desktop Updrafts and a 1.5m wingspan Updraft find new homes on the night, with strong interest continuing in pieces like Piccolo and Lookout too.

Beyond the auction itself, it was incredibly special to connect with so many people who share a love for wildlife, conservation, craftsmanship, and art inspired by the natural world. Thanks for hosting us

If you feel inspired to further support the , we highly recommend checking out their falcon experience tours or making a direct donation through their website. It’s a truly unforgettable and heartwarming experience that we personally can’t recommend enough.
