High Voltage Custom Metal Art

Some partnerships are just built for the outdoors. 🐾🦆
Our latest design celebrates a classic duo - the Black Labrador with Duck.

There’s something pretty special about the bond between a working dog and their person, and this piece captures the Lab doing what generations of these loyal, hard-working dogs have been bred to do.

It’s a great one for the duck hunter, Lab lover or rural household and with Christmas creeping closer, we reckon there’ll be a few people who immediately know exactly who they’d buy this for. 🎁

The new design is available now in a range of steel finishes, and it’s currently part of the October corten sale too.

There’s something pretty hard to beat about the sight of a Red Stag. 🦌

Strong, commanding and unmistakably at home in the wild - our new Red Stag Head design captures that presence in steel.
This one’s for the hunters, outdoorsmen and women, and anyone who has a real appreciation for New Zealand’s wild places and the animals that inhabit them.

With those impressive antlers and bold profile, it’s a piece that doesn’t need much else to make an impact.

The Red Stag Head has officially joined the High Voltage collection. ⚡

Who do you know who’d have this hanging on their wall?

The garden just gained a few new residents 🐦🌿

Our new Native Bird Garden Stakes have landed, featuring a gorgeous little line-up of Tūī, Kererū, Kingfisher, Finch and Sparrow designs.

Choose from three different stake lengths depending on where you want yours to perch - the longer stakes look fantastic amongst garden beds and planting, while the shorter option is ideal for popping into a pot plant.

Scatter a few throughout the garden, choose the bird you love most, or create your own little flock.

They’re such a simple way to add some character amongst the greenery and a lovely gift for the gardener or bird lover who already has everything!

And even better? They’re currently on sale for $60!

Now THIS is what we mean when we say personal. 🏡🖤

Our customer Meredith wanted a piece of artwork to sit at the end of the long central hallway in their Onehunga villa - something that would immediately catch your eye as you entered their home. And what could be more fitting than their own home itself?

Starting with a photo of their villa, Meredith’s husband used AI to help create an image incorporating the house and its surroundings near One Tree Hill. They then brought that concept to us, and we transformed it into this custom metal piece.

Now it has pride of place exactly where they imagined it - creating a focal point that's completely unique to their family and the home they love.

We also LOVE receiving photos like this once our work is installed. Seeing where a piece ends up and how it becomes part of your space is pretty special.

Thanks so much for sharing, Meredith - and for the lovely review! ⚡

Got an idea, photo or concept that means something to you? Bring it our way and let’s see what we can create from it.
Remember.- our Custom order cutoff before Christmas is 31 October!

Juanita is a family friend that I have known since I was a young child. She is the sweetest, kindest person and needs our help.
Any donation would be greatly appreciated - please share this with everyone you know so she can get the help she deserves 🙏

An update on Juanita's journey.

The last few weeks have been pretty tough, we really need your help.
A few weeks ago she had a pre-surgical appointment at Waikato hospital. We began the preparation for what is going to be a very invasive surgery followed by a lengthy recovery.
Another CT scan followed by an oncologist's appointment last Thursday, the news was not great, the disease has spread and his advice was to not go ahead with the surgery but to spend time with family instead.
Pharmac has once again declined our oncologists application for funding.
We were devastated, our family rallied and we had a weekend filled with whanau time.
Move forward to Saturday afternoon, we get a phone call from our oncologist who has spoken to a GIST specialist in Australia, a glimmer of hope and a possible trip to Melbourne to meet with them.
An Australian Rare Cancers Advocate is also jumping on board to help Juanita.
Australia seem prepared to help where our own Government will not.
Please share this far and wide as I can't sit back any longer, I'm going to make this as public as I can.

Got a complicated design idea? That’s our kind of challenge! ⚡

We know ordering something completely custom can sometimes feel like it’s going to involve a lot of back and forth - especially when there are detailed design elements involved.

That’s why feedback like this from John means so much.

From the initial conversation and helpful advice, through to the draft and final product, our job is to make the process as easy, clear and straightforward as possible. while making sure the end result hits the mark.

And having two custom logo signs turned around within three days? Not bad either.

Thanks for the brilliant review, John. We’re stoked you were so happy with the finished pieces!

Have something a little tricky in mind? Send it our way and let’s see what we can create.

Small dog. BIG personality. Sound familiar? 🤣🐾

There’s no mistaking a Jack Russell! Clever, fearless, full of beans and usually convinced they’re about three times bigger than they actually are.

So of course, we had to give this much-loved little character its own High Voltage design.

Our new Jack Russell has just joined the collection, capturing that alert stance Jack Russell owners know all too well… probably because they’ve spotted something they absolutely must investigate immediately.

A fun piece for your home or garden, and a pretty great gift for the Jack Russell-obsessed person in your life too.

Jack Russell owners - have we captured the attitude? 🐶

You know you’re a Kiwi fisho when you can recognise this silhouette instantly. 🎣

The snapper needs very little introduction around here, and now it’s earned itself a spot in the High Voltage collection.

Our new Swimming Snapper captures that unmistakable shape in a clean, detailed metal design that’ll feel right at home with anyone whose happy place involves a boat, a rod and an early start on the water.

It could also make a pretty good present for the person who insists the one that got away was definitely this big... 👀

The Swimming Snapper has just landed online!
Take a look and let us know what you reckon!
