Mallee Birdbaths are specifically designed to serve birds. The copper dishes are broad and shallow, allowing birds to land on the edge and walk into the water. The baths are modern, elegant and durable. They are locally made in the Illawarra (NSW, Australia) using materials that will weather well and last decades. For help on which dish to choose, go here.
Unless otherwise marked our online prices include shipping around Australia. See our shipping Policy for more information.

The birds in this video are quite common backyard birds, perhaps with the exception of the Australasian Figbird. For maximum effect, watch in full screen.
Please Note: Due to Covid related supply chain issues, and increasing copper prices worldwide, current stock levels are very low. We are doing our best to secure copper material for the end of this year and into 2022.
We are expecting new Large dishes in the first couple of weeks of December. Extra Large dishes should be available in the first week of December. We do apologise for the poor timing, just before Christmas. To be notified when Large and Extra Large dishes become available, please leave your email address on our contact form and we will contact you as soon as new dishes are available.

The benefits of copper
Not only does every dish age beautifully, developing a rich and detailed patina of varying colours, but copper has two other benefit: its antimicrobial properties upsets the mosquito lifecycle, and resist the growth of algae. So you can enjoy the benefits that a body of water brings to your garden without worrying about mosquitoes or slimy water.
Water features
Mallee dishes can be used to make stunning water features. There are a few different designs possible. Speak to your local landscaper or consult this page for our preferred design.
