Lauburu Copper Backsplash — Hand-Hammered Wall Art

A hand-hammered copper panel featuring the Lauburu — the ancient Basque four-armed spiral symbol — enclosed within layered circular bands and an outer geometric ring. Made to your exact size in any of 15 finishes. Most customers order a single panel as a statement piece — above the stove, above the fireplace, or in the entryway — then add coordinating panels for other walls or spaces in the same finish and aesthetic.

A four-armed spiral arranged in a smooth rotating pattern — the arms curving outward from the center, the whole symbol balanced and alive with implied movement. Layered circular bands enclosing the motif, an outer geometric ring giving the composition its structured edge. The Lauburu: a symbol of the Basque people, ancient and immediately recognizable, carrying the energy of the sun and the continuity of the spiral. Hand-hammered in raised copper relief against a richly textured green patina background — the warm copper symbol standing out against the aged green, the contrast strong and the character deeply handcrafted.

Hand-hammered from flat copper sheet in our family workshop. Every curve, every band, every geometric detail formed by hand. Over 10,000 pieces installed.

Size

Made to your exact dimensions. This design works best as a square or near-square panel — the circular composition needs equal space in all directions. Select a size above — or if your size isn’t listed, send us your measurements via live chat or the contact page. We’ll add it as a new size option and notify you when it’s ready to order.

Where This Panel Goes — and What to Order With It

When you order more than one piece, we design everything together — matched finish, matched texture, matched aesthetic. Made together, shipped together.

Kitchen — stove wall
The Lauburu centered behind the range — a heritage symbol as the focal point of the kitchen. One panel, sized to your stove wall. Pair it with a coordinating geometric border panel on the sink wall — the spiral motif echoed in a simpler repeating pattern, same finish.

Kitchen — full wall backsplash
The Lauburu at the center, flanked by coordinating panels on both sides — a geometric field or a plain finish field that lets the symbol command the center. The full wall designed as one composition.

Kitchen — range hood
A lower band wrapping the base of the range hood — a repeating spiral or geometric border in the same finish. Three panels for a three-sided hood, or a single front panel.

Kitchen — island
Island front panels in the same finish — a geometric field or a smaller Lauburu motif repeated across the island front. One panel per side, or all four sides.

Above the fireplace
The Lauburu above the mantle — the heritage symbol presiding over the living room. A single panel centered above the fire, or a set of three: the Lauburu at center, geometric border panels on both sides.

Feature wall
The Lauburu as the center of a full feature wall — larger, more monumental, coordinating geometric panels surrounding it. The symbol at the scale it deserves.

Entryway
The Lauburu beside the front door — the house announcing its Basque heritage before anyone reaches the interior. A single panel, or paired with a family name panel in the same finish above or below it.

Bathroom — vanity backsplash
A smaller Lauburu panel behind the vanity — the symbol in its most intimate setting, the bathroom connected to the heritage of the rest of the house.

Door transom and window surrounds
A transom panel above the front door — a geometric border in the same finish as the Lauburu, the entrance framed in the same aesthetic. Window side panels — narrow vertical panels with a repeating spiral motif.

Outdoor garden or courtyard wall
The Lauburu mounted outside — the ancient symbol in the open air. Fully weatherproof, sealed for outdoor use.

Send us photos of any space — or all of them. We’ll design a coordinated set and show you a mockup of everything together before anything is made.
