Meet the Kākāpō
The Kākāpō is a large, flightless parrot found only in Aotearoa - and one of the rarest birds in the world. Moss green with intricate mottled feathers, it has a soft, owl-like face and a gentle, distinctive presence unlike any other parrot.
Kākāpō are nocturnal and solitary, spending their nights foraging on the forest floor for fruits, seeds, and plants. Flightless but powerful climbers, they are known for their calm temperament, extraordinary longevity -some living well over 60 years - and a deep, booming mating call that can carry for kilometres across the night air. Once widespread across Aotearoa, they are now found only on a handful of predator-free islands, the focus of one of New Zealand's most dedicated conservation efforts.
Each Kākāpō is handcrafted in Arrowtown by Jack Stobart - individually shaped from natural stone and finished with carved timber and resin detailing, reflecting the bird's soft, rounded form and quiet character. No two are exactly alike.
Each piece has a threaded bolt set into the base, so it can be displayed however suits your space - perched on a post or ledge, or mounted onto an M6 rod pushed into a garden bed or pot plant.
Approx. dimensions 20(h)x 15(w) x 20(d) cm
