Mockingbird Copper Backsplash

Mockingbird Copper Backsplash — Hand-Hammered Wall Art

A mockingbird perched on a flowering branch, facing right — rounded body, layered wing feathers, defined eye and beak, long tail extending left. The branch runs left to right, smaller offshoots extending outward, large blossoms on both sides — a cluster of flowers and buds near the bird’s head on the right, one large flower with surrounding leaves near the tail on the left. The state bird of Arkansas, Florida, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Texas — on a branch in full bloom, in copper. The design shown carries “ARKANSAS” in large uppercase letters above the bird. Yours can carry your state, your name, any word, or nothing at all. Hand-hammered in raised copper relief: the bird in fine feather detail, the blossoms in broad relief, the lettering reading in the same copper as everything below it.

Hand-hammered from flat copper sheet in our family workshop. Every feather, every blossom, every letter formed by hand. Made to your exact dimensions. 15 finishes. Over 10,000 pieces installed.

Add Your State — or Any Text — Optional

The panel works beautifully without any text. If you want words, add them in the notes field at checkout — your state name, your city, your family name, a phrase, anything. We’ll place it above the bird and show you a preview before anything is made. No extra charge. The mockingbird is the state bird of Arkansas, Florida, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Texas — this panel works for all five.

As a Gift

The state bird panel is one of the strongest regional gifts in the catalog. For someone who just moved away from home and misses it. For a housewarming in a new state. For a birthday gift for someone who grew up in Arkansas or Texas or Mississippi. We personalize it for the person and the place — add the details in the notes field.

The Full Kitchen Wall

This panel centered behind the stove — the mockingbird and blossoms as the focal point, your state or phrase above if you choose it. Side panels don’t repeat the design. We design what belongs beside it: a continuation of the flowering branch, a botanical field, a state flower or state tree pattern. One unified wall, designed as a whole, shown to you as a mockup before anything is made.

Send us your wall dimensions or a photo of your kitchen and we’ll design the full set.

What Else Could Go in This Space

The state bird buyer usually has a strong connection to place — a home state, a family history, a region that shaped them. Here’s what that home looks like — these are examples of the kind of designs we’d create, not a fixed menu. Your version gets designed for your space.

Sink wall — imagine the state flower of your state behind the sink — the apple blossom for Arkansas, the orange blossom for Florida, the magnolia for Mississippi. The kitchen tells the full story of the state from both walls.

Above the fireplace — imagine a state map panel above the mantle — the outline of your state in copper relief, your hometown marked, the state name below it. The fireplace wall becomes a declaration of where you’re from.

Entryway — imagine your family name and home state in copper lettering beside the front door — “The Johnson Family · Arkansas” — with a small mockingbird above it. The house announces where it comes from.

Bedroom — imagine a state landscape panel on the headboard wall — the Ozarks, the Mississippi Delta, the Texas Hill Country — the land that shaped the family, rendered in copper relief.

Outdoor garden wall — imagine the mockingbird panel mounted outside — the bird in its natural setting, in the garden. Fully weatherproof, sealed for outdoor use.

Send us photos of any space and tell us what you have in mind — or tell us the state and the story. We’ll take it from there.
