Hi Goina... Fantastic, thank you. They will be much loved by their recipients, I'm sure. Warm regards - from the now sunny Hawke's Bay,

That’s great Goina, thank you!! His name was Charles Sebastian but we called him Charlie. He was a huge cat with a very loving nature. His vet loved him. Unfortunately he got cancer and died very quickly and unexpectedly. As you can probably tell I still miss him terribly as do his two remaining feline friends. I appreciate all that you’ve done for me Goina and look forward to receiving the block. Many thanks,

and
I’d be delighted and you can also add that you made me feel as though my little picture of Charlie was just as important as any much larger jobs you may have been doing. I haven’t had such caring and helpful service for a long time. Feel free to use whatever you need. And thanks once again for all the trouble you’ve gone to for me.
Regards, Alison A. - Australia

Hello... Fantastic news the parcel arrived yesterday - Yahoo! Adore all the contents and the mask has pride of place in our lounge, absolutely stunning. Already eaten all of the chocolate, fabulously yummy. Candles smell amazing and wearing the glass pendant which has been a show stopper people keep wanting to touch it. Thank you again for all your hard work in tracking down the glorious parcel. Loads of love to you and yours from a rather strange climate that we call England.

Hello Goina, Hope all's well, and that you are enjoying the (much) warmer summer temps in NZ. I just received the masks and the chocs yesterday; they are beautiful (the masks), and the chocs were wonderful. I know that my wife will be absolutely thrilled with these. Thanks so much for your help on this. All the best! Regards,

Aotearoa means 'land of the long white cloud', the name given to New Zealand by the Maori.

Our logo incorporates the koru shape. The koru is the unfurling of the fern leaf.
It represents growth, movement, new life, new beginnings...

According to a Maori legend, Kupe, a Maori chief, was the first Maori to arrive in New Zealand. Kupe sailed from Hawaiki in or around 950AD in a canoe called Maataahourua. Kupe saw New Zealand spread out before him and said "he ao he aotea he aotearoa" which has been translated as "it's a cloud... a white cloud... a long white cloud". It wasn't until around 1350 that great fleets of Maori arrived and settled, but the name Aotearoa has stuck as the Maori name for New Zealand. Abel Tasman (1642) was a Dutchman who thought that Aotearoa looked like a place in the Netherlands called 'Zeeland', hence he named the country New Zealand.

Our site promotes and sells New Zealand art, New Zealand and Pacific arts, crafts, gifts, jewelry, kiwiana and more...
