Gift ideas: metal wall art for hunters, coffee lovers and city lovers

Steel wall art gift ideas by interest — for hunters and outdoor people, coffee lovers, and anyone who loves a city — with tips on choosing size and finish for someone else.

Wall art is a personal gift, which is what makes it a good one — and a slightly risky one. The safest way to get it right is to choose by what the person loves, not by what you think suits their walls. Here are ideas for three kinds of people.

For hunters and outdoor people

Someone who spends their weekends in the woods will recognise a good wildlife silhouette at once. Look at:

  • hunting scenes, such as a hunter with a deer or a bow hunter with an elk;
  • wildlife: wolves, deer and elk, from a single head to a whole family;
  • mountains and campers, for the hiker or the road-tripper.

These suit a cabin, a den, a garage or a man cave, and a black or bronze finish blends with wood and leather. If the piece is going on a porch or outbuilding, choose the mounting holes option. See the full cabin and hunting collection.

For coffee lovers

A coffee sign is one of the easiest gifts to get right. Almost every kitchen has a corner where the machine lives, and it nearly always has an empty wall above it.

  • Word signs like Coffee Bar or Espresso Bar for a clear statement.
  • Objects for the enthusiast: a moka pot, a latte cup, a coffee plant, or a Turkish coffee set.

Medium sizes work best over a counter. Black suits white tiles; gold or bronze matches brass taps and wood shelves. Browse the coffee bar signs.

For city lovers

A skyline or landmark is a gift with a story: the city where someone was born, studied, met their partner or moved for a new job. It makes a thoughtful housewarming or leaving gift.

We make full skylines (Chicago, New York, Istanbul, Jacksonville and more) and single landmarks, such as bridges and towers. Long skylines suit a wall above a sofa or bed; landmarks fit smaller walls. See all city skylines.

Choosing size and finish for someone else

  • Not sure about the wall? A medium size is the safest choice. It works above a desk, a console or a small sofa.
  • Not sure about the colour? Black goes with almost every wall.
  • Need it by a date? Every piece is made to order. Check the delivery estimate on the Etsy listing before you buy.
