🐦 Steel Back Kiwi – Steampunk Scrap‑Metal Kiwi Sculpture
Industrial presence. Scrap‑metal artistry. A true New Zealand icon reimagined in steel.
Introducing the Steel Back Kiwi, one of the most commanding creations in our steampunk sculpture collection.
Standing at approximately 1000mm tall and extending over a meter in length, this kiwi is a substantial, heavy, and visually striking piece. Its scale and weight give it a monumental presence, making it an unforgettable focal point in any setting.
Every Steel Back Kiwi is built from recycled scrap metal — gears, bolts, metal plates, keys, padlocks, horseshoes, old tools, car parts, and more — resulting in a sculpture that is entirely unique.
The intricate layering of components creates a bold mechanical texture while still capturing the unmistakable stance and character of New Zealand’s beloved bird.
Because of their steampunk construction, these sculptures are robust, weighty, and built to endure, yet they radiate charm and personality. Whether placed in a garden, entranceway, commercial space, or interior feature area, they make a powerful statement.
