Morepork / Ruru - 3-Layer Framed Wall Art

The ruru belongs to the quiet part of the bush day: a small native owl, perched and watchful, with a call that carries through the trees after dark. This design centres on those large, distinctive eyes and the dense feather texture of the bird.

Fine cut detail in the walnut-stained birch overlay reveals a crisp white cast-acrylic middle layer beneath. It brings the eye rings, plumage and blossoms into sharp relief against the dark grey-stained timber backing, while the physical gap between layers adds shadow and depth.

Measuring 320 mm high x 215 mm wide overall, with a visible artwork area of 305 mm x 195 mm, it is sized to make an impact without needing a large wall.

Framed in hardwax-finished macrocarpa, each piece is designed, made and finished in our Helensville workshop. Natural timber grain and hand finishing make every piece subtly individual.

For every Native Bird Wall Art piece sold, furnACE sets aside $2 for quarterly donations supporting New Zealand native-bird conservation.
