Copper Kitchen Backsplashes & Wall Art — Custom Made

Natuross copper kitchen backsplashes are among the most recognized handmade copper installations in American homes. Every piece is an original work — designed for your specific kitchen, hand-hammered on the anvil in the tradition of chasing and repoussé, made to your exact dimensions, in any of 15 finishes. Over 10,000 custom copper projects installed across the US. Ready to install, no sealing required.


Backsplashes

The range backsplash is the centerpiece of the kitchen — the wall every cook faces, the wall every guest photographs. Made to the exact width and height of your space, from countertop to upper cabinets or floor to ceiling behind a freestanding range. The sink backsplash is quieter, more personal. The island backsplash faces the dining area and the living room — often the most visible surface in an open-plan home.

A large-format culinary composition — the chef's knife, the ladle, the mortar and pestle. The family name surrounded by herbs and spices. A vintage French kitchen scene. A full wall panel, countertop to ceiling, as one unified composition that makes the kitchen feel designed by an architect, not fitted by a contractor.

Hood Panels

The range hood is one of the most underdesigned surfaces in the kitchen — and one of the most visible. A copper panel or full surround transforms it from a functional appliance into the focal point of the room. Front panel, three-sided surround, chimney panel, or hood interior — ordered alone or as part of a complete kitchen set.

A bold culinary composition on the hood front. The family name or kitchen motto in precision letterforms. A geometric design that makes the hood feel like a piece of furniture. The design running continuously around all three faces of a full surround.

Cabinet Panels

Copper on the cabinet doors changes the kitchen more completely than any other single decision. Full set or selective — upper cabinets, lower cabinets, feature cabinets, pantry door, refrigerator surround. The cabinet end panel is the finishing detail that makes a kitchen feel designed from every angle.

A hammered texture across all doors — the copper speaking through the material alone. A geometric relief pattern that gives each door its own quiet detail. A continuous motif running across all doors as one composition — each door carrying a fragment, the full picture revealed when all are seen together.

Island Panels

The island front faces the dining area and the living room — a long horizontal canvas that suits a continuous, commanding statement. Front panel, three-sided wrap, breakfast bar inner panel, or waterfall end panel. In an open-plan home, the island is often the first copper surface every visitor sees.

The family name running the full length of the island in precision letterforms. A continuous culinary frieze in shallow relief. A bold geometric composition that makes the island feel like a designed piece of furniture rather than a block in the middle of the room.

Appliance Panels

Copper on the front face of the refrigerator, dishwasher, wine fridge, or coffee machine — every appliance in the same finish as the backsplash and the cabinets. The detail that makes an integrated kitchen feel completely seamless.

Wall Art & Sculptures

For the walls beyond the backsplash. A feature wall panel. A pot rack back panel — copper pots against a copper wall, the installation that stops every guest. A breakfast nook wall. A fireplace surround. Freeform copper sculptures — not a panel with a picture of a chef's knife, but a copper chef's knife, shaped and mounted on the wall. A cast iron pan. A fish. Made to any size.

Kitchen Signs

The family name on the kitchen wall. A grandmother's recipe in copper. The founding year of the home. A kitchen motto. Herb and pantry labels. See all sign types on the Copper Signs & Plaques page.

"The [Family Name] Kitchen" · "Est. [Year]" · "Cook with Love" · Basil · Rosemary · Thyme


The Complete Kitchen

Most customers who start with a backsplash come back for the hood, the cabinets, the island. The ones who work with us from the beginning get something better — every surface designed together, sized together, finished together. One conversation. One craftsman. One kitchen that looks like it was always meant to be this way.


Copper as a Kitchen Gift

A backsplash panel for a housewarming. A recipe sign for a wedding gift. Copper is the traditional 7th anniversary gift — a panel made for their exact kitchen is the most personal version of that tradition. See Copper Gifts for ideas by occasion.

"The backsplash behind the range changed the entire kitchen. Every person who comes into the house goes straight to the kitchen to look at it. It is the most beautiful thing in the house." — Natuross customer
