Wall Art

The perfect holiday gift for that favorite avid reader. Herman Melville’s words jump off the page and onto your wall in our collection of “Moby Dick” inspired artwork. 

A quote from Moby Dick is all the inspiration that is needed for this unique piece "the Whale went down again". Layered tone on tone painting of blues is the vastness of the sea and sky all in one. The Pequod Ship is all cut from super-thin wood and applied to the surface. The White whale is a cut shape that is applied to the background and always our great distressed matte finish overall. Framed in 100+-year-old wood lath. All handcrafted from wood, each piece is created for you. 

The focal point of these unique pieces is the white whale and is one of the four pieces in our new White Whale Art Collection all from Herman Melville's Moby Dick or the Whale, a classic piece of American literature. These are a visual representation of the chase throughout the novel. All feature Moby Dick as the main image, some feature the ship, the Pequod, the deepwater of the oceans they sail in search of the whale.

Decorate your wall with our Black Whale Supersized Cutout! This whale is based on Herman Melville's classic novel Moby Dick. Although he was fictitious, it was based on a real animal. A huge albino sperm whale with a violent streak had fascinated whalers and the reading public for decades before Melville published his masterpiece. The whale, "Mocha Dick," was named for the island of Mocha in the Pacific off the coast of Chile.

Size: 41" w x 18" h x .5" d

Finished in our Cast Iron Black, the distressed wood finish amplifies his surface texture, and the photo here does not do it justice. The warm tones of the wood come through, and we distress so you can see his eye, fin, and surface details. We will always cut him with the grain running horizontally as if he has been in the ocean for decades.

This is the most fantastic whale sign for your beach house or porch or to bring that beach feel home.

Often an inspiring quote is not pretty, but it is true. This quote from Captain Ahab in "The White Whale" Story is about the grit he needs from his men and the courage that they need to find within themselves, men who worked hard and long to bring in a catch that provided for their families and villages. This is a hand-pulled silkscreen quote on wood that is perfectly distressed and framed in reclaimed rustic wood. Perfect for a nautical gallery wall or that niche that needs a little something.

Our Carved Lobster Wall Art is the perfect addition to your coastal living room, kitchen, outdoor covered patio, or even as an office decoration. The king of crustaceans, our lobster, has been carved into the surface of the wood with every detail of his shell and claws. It’s an impressive decoration that you will enjoy every day as it hangs on your wall. Whether you're at work or home, it will always remind you of the coast and all its beauty.

Create all by hand in the Haven America team studio in New Orleans. The surface is first paint finished in your choice of 6 colors (see the pulldown menu). We then distress the surface and the lobster image is carved into the wood exposing the wood's raw natural tones. It is then finished with a handsome frame created from reclaimed 100+-year-old wood, which we leave natural—it's a great addition to coastal art that will complete your beach decor.
