— We believe —

In elemental boldness.

Every Hewn Earth piece is made to be the reason you look at the wall — never wallpaper, never afterthought. Whether earth-toned or saturated, figurative or abstract, small or wall-sized: the piece is the point.

Every design, hand-tufted in New Zealand wool. Every style, made to make the room.

Designed in Seattle by two friends — a designer and an engineer — made to order, within reach.

The Craft

From New Zealand wool to your wall.

01

Hanks of naturally dyed New Zealand wool, cream through oat, clay and rust

New Zealand wool, hand-tufted

We start with New Zealand wool — the longest fibre, the whitest ground, the deepest colour after dyeing. It's what makes hand-carved high-low relief possible without shedding.

02

Hand-tufted, hand-carved

Each strand is punched through a woven backing with a tufting gun, then hand-sculpted into high-low relief. Two to three weeks per piece. No shortcuts, no printing, no laser cutting.

03

Photographed, shipped worldwide

Every piece is photographed in daylight before it leaves the studio, then flown to your door with duties paid. About three to four weeks from your order to your wall.

In real
homes

Hewn Earth pieces, at home.

Why Hewn Earth

Not a print. Not a poster. Not an afterthought.

Sculptural, not flat

Every piece is carved by hand in wool relief — depth you can feel, ridges that catch light. Not a print. Not a poster. A physical object with topography, designed to hold the room.

One craft, many voices

Designed in the USA and hand-tufted in China by our artisan partners. Choose Wool Blend or 100% New Zealand Wool.

Made for you

Every piece hand-tufted to order, photographed in daylight before it ships. Design help by email. Direct from workshop to your wall.

Wall or Floor

Some pieces, two ways.

Select designs are made both ways — the same sculptural relief as a wall hanging or a hand-carved rug, in New Zealand wool. Look for the pieces offered in both.
