Matai Gallery

We make bamboo topographical maps of New Zealand that are a celebration of the great New Zealand outdoors. Handmade in our Wairarapa workshop.

Quality workmanship

All of our artworks are hand crafted and finished to the highest standard. Each layer is sanded, hand painted, assembled and framed by us, right down to the tiny little details that we use a pair of tweezers to stick on! Everything is made by us in our Wairarapa workshop.

We consider the environment when choosing our materials. We use FSC bamboo ply made with E0 glues, eco friendly stains and glues and fsc pine frames. Our packaging is plastic free and recyclable and we minimise our waste by making smaller items from our offcuts.

Sustainable

With a strong focus on sustainability, our maps help to ensure the preservation of this wonderful country for all previous, current and future generations. Our love letter to New Zealand.

Made in New Zealand

Our Wairarapa workshop is nestled in the heart of Carterton, near the majestic Tararua range which can be seen from almost every window (how’s that for inspiration!).
