Tanya Wolfkamp NZ Birds Oval Placemats Set of 4
A boxed set of four cork-backed oval placemats, each featuring a different New Zealand native bird artwork in the pietra dura style.
Pietra dura is an inlay technique in which cut stone is fitted together to build up an image. The four artworks here are curated in that style, so the birds and foliage read as assembled shapes with hard edges rather than as soft painted illustration.
The four designs
- The Unfanned Tail – Fantail | pīwaiwaka
- New Blossoms Appreciated – Waxeyes | tauhou
- Special Branch Arrives – Tūī
- Such Lucky Dips – Kākāriki
Each mat measures 415mm x 295mm, which gives room for a dinner plate with cutlery either side. The cork backing sits between the mat and the table surface. The set arrives boxed, which makes it straightforward to store between uses or give as a gift.
