Kiwi Trivet | Kiwiana | Ceramic & Cork
Not your average national icon. This kiwi has traded a life of shy, nocturnal foraging for a rainbow bucket hat and a pair of glasses that suggest either very poor eyesight or very good taste — either way, she's spotted her fair share of toadstools and doesn't care who knows it. Flanked by butterflies in every colour the forest could muster and framed by that unmistakable long beak, she's equal parts bush-dweller and garden party guest.
The real kiwi is famously private — flightless, nocturnal, and about as elusive as New Zealand wildlife gets, so much so that most Kiwis (the human kind) go a lifetime without spotting one in the wild. She's a national taonga, protected and treasured, appearing on everything from the dollar coin to the nickname for an entire country. This version, though, isn't hiding from anyone. Kitted out among red-and-white spotted mushrooms and a scatter of wildflowers, she's leaned all the way into main-character energy.
A cheeky, whimsical bit of Kiwiana for the kitchen table — equal parts native pride and pure fun. Finished with a cork backing to protect the surfaces beneath.
