Hassle-free returnsAlthough the koru already resembles a frond in essence, this particular piece has taken true and genuine inspiration from the unfurling fronds of the silver fern. The three koru details are placed in an organic way around the pendant, with the small spirals resembling their natural inspiration.
The artist behind this creationNiki is an artist who is constantly pushing his technical ability by crafting pounamu carvings that are impressively complex, with his Manaia and Hei Tiki being prime examples. His designs are influenced by the natural surroundings of the Urewera Ranges, a forested area where he grew up. As a teenager, he became interested in carving pounamu and has since built an international career in the art. There is a unique, almost fluid aesthetic seen throughout all of Niki’s work, which when paired with his drive to produce complex carvings, sees him as one of New Zealand’s foremost jade artists.
