Custom copper kitchen backsplash featuring a hand-hammered kangaroo in raised copper relief. Inspired by the Australian outback, this design combines wildlife, natural beauty, and artisan metalwork to create a backsplash that feels both distinctive and timeless.

Crafted from 24-gauge real copper and formed by hand over a rigid backing, each panel offers the authentic character of handcrafted metal while remaining practical for everyday kitchen use. The finished panel measures approximately 1/4" thick, similar to traditional wall tile, yet remains lightweight and easy to install.

At the center of the composition stands a kangaroo in an alert, upright posture, surrounded by native grasses and flowering eucalyptus branches. The design conveys the quiet strength and unmistakable silhouette that have made the kangaroo one of the world's most recognized wildlife symbols. Delicate foliage balances the composition, while the hammered copper background reflects light beautifully and adds visual depth throughout the day.

Every visible detail is individually shaped into the metal by hand, from the kangaroo's facial features and powerful hind legs to the textured ground cover, grasses, leaves, and berry clusters. The dimensional relief creates a natural interplay of highlights and shadows that cannot be achieved with flat artwork.

Not printed, not stamped, not cast. Each panel is handcrafted from genuine copper using traditional metalworking techniques.

For many years, Natuross has specialized exclusively in custom copper kitchen backsplashes. Thousands of our pieces have been installed behind stoves in real homes across America, earning exceptional customer feedback and proving themselves through years of everyday use.

This kangaroo design is especially suited to Australian-inspired interiors, wildlife-themed kitchens, nature-focused homes, ranch properties, vacation homes, and spaces where owners want something memorable that guests have never seen before. Whether installed behind a cooktop, above a fireplace, or as decorative wall art, it creates an immediate focal point and conversation piece.

Installation is uncomplicated. Panels can be mounted directly over drywall, wood, stone, brick, metal, or existing tile using appropriate adhesive, silicone, or mechanical fasteners. A hanging-wire option is also available for decorative wall display. Each panel is protected with a durable clear coating that helps preserve the finish and makes maintenance simple. Everyday cooking residue can be removed with a soft cloth, warm water, and mild dish soap.

A wide range of finishes is available, including natural copper, aged copper patinas, silver-toned finishes, brass-toned finishes, black-accented finishes, and mixed-metal combinations, allowing the design to complement both traditional and contemporary kitchens.
