Each glass bird is handcast in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland by renowned glass artist Luke Jacomb using traditional wax casting techniques, making every piece subtly unique and a true work of art.

Each of these native New Zealand birds are made to order and crafted with meticulous care into luminous, wall-mounted sculptures that appear in graceful flight.

Display them solo, clustered, or as a flock to bring meaningful glass art into your home. 

Created in collaboration between Auckland Zoo and Luke Jacomb Studio, $50.00 from every glass Tara Iti sold contributes to the conservation efforts of this rare and special taonga.

The Zoo Shop holds a selection of birds, butterflies and bees in stock for viewing and immediate purchase. Contact or visit us to find out what’s available for prompt dispatch.
