See pounamu carving in action through the workshop windows.

See Our Master Carver at Work
Through our workshop window, you can see our carvers at work, each piece carefully shaped by hand. It’s a rare chance to witness the artistry of pounamu carving up close, where traditional techniques and modern creativity meet.
Experience the cultural meaning of pounamu with our whānau
Each taonga is more than jewellery, it carries a story of connection, strength, and belonging. Whether you’re choosing a gift, celebrating a milestone, or selecting a piece for yourself, our whānau will guide you to something that holds meaning.
