Hand-carved NZ Pounamu
Hassle-free returnsThis pendant has a Matakupenga (Fishnet) design carved into the piece, representing knowledge, strength, and determination.
The artist behind this creationJames is an emerging pounamu carver whose journey began in the Mountain Jade Studio after finishing high school. With a talent for storytelling through his art, his path has been one of exploration, growth, and a deep connection to his culture.
After spending seven years honing his craft within the walls of our studio and learning the foundations of carving from Tamaora Walker, James felt the pull of the wider world, embarking on a four-year hiatus, eager to soak up diverse experiences and perspectives. This time away from carving moulded him, shaping his perspectives and outlook on life and growing his collection of stories to tell.
