Featured Artist:

Luke Gardiner

Also from the wild west coast of New Zealand's South Island, Luke is a master carver of simply amazing talent. Luke's designs, often in the more translucent types of Pounamu feature fine detail and finishing with spectacular twists and hook forms.

*** Stock clearance specials in this gallery ***

Many of these special carvings are unique custom or limited edition pieces that will not be repeated on our site and therefore do not appear in our stock catalogue. Some of the "designs" may be repeated but the colour, pattern and texture of the special jades from which each is carved makes most pieces very unique.

Once each piece sells it will be removed from our site permanently.

Please Note - Some examples on the jade pages show the carvings with a degree of back lighting to illustrate their luminosity.
This is how they look when held up to a light so they may appear a darker shade of green when held in the hand or worn against the skin.

All carvings are supplied complete with a traditional style cord & bag.
Most cords are hand made from black waxed braid with a loop and bone toggle fitted. A woven flax presentation case and information on the meaning of the design is also included.
Cords & Packing Detail

Fast airmail shipping worldwide is now just US$6.95 for up to 5 pendants.
As these carvings can never be replaced if lost in transit, we highly recommend choosing the courier delivery option.
