Waitematā Harbour, New Zealand - Large

Waitematā Harbour Wooden Depth Map – A Handcrafted Gift for a Mum Who Loves the Coast

The Waitematā Harbour is Auckland's gateway to the world — a vast tidal expanse that shapes the city's identity, framed by the bridge, the volcanic cones, and the coastline stretching east toward the Hauraki Gulf. This handcrafted wooden depth map captures the harbour's contours, from the shallow inner reaches to the deep channel beneath the bridge.

Lovingly made in New Zealand, each map is laser-cut from premium European Birch and hand-painted to reveal the layered beauty of the seafloor beneath.

🎁 The Perfect Mother's Day Gift
For an Auckland mum who loves her city's harbour — who watches the ferries cross, or has spent summer evenings watching the Waitematā turn gold — this map belongs on her wall.

⚠️ Order by 26 April to receive in time for Mother's Day (10 May).
