Copper Wall Art & Backsplash for Yurts

The yurt is the most circular home in the world — no corners, no straight walls, and a roof that opens to the sky at the center. It is the oldest continuously inhabited domestic form on earth, and the one that has always been built around the fire at its center. Copper has been part of the nomadic craft tradition since before the yurt was first raised on the steppe — the warm metal worked by hand, carried across the landscape, and placed at the center of the home. A Natuross copper relief panel in a yurt — the wolf on the curved wall, the eagle above the stove surround, the steppe botanical on the feature panel — is the warm, handmade surface that belongs in the circular home as naturally as the fire belongs at its center.

Natuross makes hand-hammered copper relief panels for every surface in the yurt — curved wall panels, central stove surrounds, kitchen backsplashes, bathroom surfaces, and more. Made to your exact dimensions including curved wall profiles. Lightweight aluminum composite backing — easy to install on lattice wall structures. Suitable for indoor and outdoor spaces, wet areas, and all-season environments. Ready to install, easy to clean, and built to last. Over 10,000 pieces installed in homes across the US.


The Central Stove Surround

The central stove is the most yurt-specific Natuross installation — the copper relief panel around the stove that sits at the center of the circular home, the warm metal surface around the fire that the yurt has always been organized around. An eagle or wolf composition in raised copper relief around the stove opening. A steppe botanical arrangement. A geometric nomadic pattern. The central stove surround is the piece that makes the yurt feel as considered as the tradition it comes from. See the Living Room page for more.

The Curved Wall Panel

The curved wall panel is the most architecturally specific Natuross installation in the yurt — the copper relief artwork made to the exact radius of the yurt wall, the warm metal surface that follows the circular form of the home. A steppe botanical composition in raised copper relief — the wolf, the eagle, the steppe wildflower, the nomadic geometric — following the curve of the lattice wall. A circular medallion composition centered on the wall. Made to the exact curved dimensions of the yurt wall panel.

The Kitchen

The copper relief panel behind the range — in a steppe botanical or nomadic geometric composition: the eagle, the wolf, the steppe wildflower, the nomadic pattern at the scale of the kitchen wall section. A range hood surround in the same design. In a yurt, the kitchen backsplash is made to the curved wall profile — the panel that fits the circular interior as naturally as the lattice wall it mounts on.

Yurt Signs & Plaques

The yurt name beside the entrance. A family name plaque. A founding year. A welcome sign. Every sign made with any text, any font, any finish. See all sign types on the Copper Signs & Plaques page.

Finishes

Natural Copper is the most yurt-authentic finish — the warm, honest metal that belongs beside natural felt, timber lattice, and the central fire. It is the material the nomadic craftsman has always worked — warm, portable, and completely at home in the circular interior. Brown Copper adds the aged warmth of a surface that has traveled with the home for a long time. Fire Copper suits central stove surrounds with the most dramatic, open-fire character — the flame-toned metal around the fire at the center of the yurt. Green Copper suits yurts in forest or meadow settings — the natural patina of copper that has weathered in the landscape the yurt belongs to. Browse all 15 finishes.

"The eagle stove surround in Natural Copper around the central fire and the wolf panel on the curved wall. Our yurt is permanent — we have lived in it full-time for four years on forty acres in Montana. The copper was the last surface decision we made and the one we should have made first. The circular home has always been built around the fire. The copper around the fire is the surface that makes the yurt feel complete. Everything else in the yurt is temporary by design. The copper is not." — Natuross customer


For Interior Designers & Architects

Yurt projects are the most geometrically specific copper brief in alternative residential design — every panel must be made to the exact radius of the yurt wall, the central stove surround must fit the circular stove opening precisely, and the curved wall panel must mount cleanly on the lattice wall structure. Send the yurt diameter, the wall height, and photos of the interior. You’ll receive a complete design proposal sized precisely to your yurt geometry. Direct communication with the craftsman throughout.
