Koru twist greenstone carving

Greenstone koru twist carvings


One of our most popular pounamu (NZ greenstone) carvings. The koru represents new life, new beginnings, growth and movement. The twist represents the bonding of lives for eternity and friendship. Maori greenstone pendants are a truly significant New Zealand gift and is very precious to many Kiwis.

Pukeko with funky boots

Pukeko with funky boots


We LOVE these ceramic pukeko created by Kevin Kilsby. A pukeko is an endemic New Zealand swamphen - often seen near the water and at the road side. If you have a garden, or just a balcony or a single pot plant, these ceramic gifts look pretty cool, both indoors as outdoors. And yes, we do have one in our own garden. The funky ceramic boots always make people smile.
