A beautifully engraved kākāpō — Aotearoa’s moss‑green, night‑dwelling, flightless icon — captured in detailed linework on warm acacia wood. Measuring 35 cm x 24 cm, this decorative‑only board is a celebration of one of the world’s most extraordinary birds: curious, gentle, ancient, and fighting its way back from the edge.

The kākāpō isn’t just endangered — it’s a symbol of what determined conservation can achieve. From near‑extinction to a carefully managed population of just over 300 individuals, every kākāpō represents decades of science, care, and hope. Displaying this artwork keeps their story alive, reminding us that conservation is not abstract — it’s personal, emotional, and deeply connected to the species we choose to champion.

Each board is individually engraved in our New Zealand studio and produced in limited quantities. Because of this handcrafted nature, returns are not granted once sold.

The rich acacia grain adds depth and warmth to the engraving, making this board a striking centrepiece for any wall, table, or mantle. Style it in your home, gift it to a wildlife‑hearted friend, or let it stand as a proud tribute to one of Aotearoa’s most beloved taonga.

A bold, joyful celebration of the kākāpō — crafted with intention, care, and Wild SASS energy.
