Jade & Agave Carvings:
The beauty of jade is unsurpassed with its semi translucent look and swirls of green that seem to float deep within the stone. Hold a jade carving up to the light and you will truly be looking into another world.
Nephrite jade ranges in colour from a very pale green to a very dark almost black jade.
Many of these pieces are carved from New Zealand jade or "Pounamu" which is also often known locally as Greenstone. Pounamu is only found on the rugged west coast of the South Island.
Please Note - Most examples on the jade pages show the carvings with back lighting to illustrate their luminosity.
This is how they look when held up to a light so they may appear a much darker shade of green when held in the hand or worn against the skin.

Hold it in your hand or against your skin and it will transform into a dark green sometimes almost black with subtle glimpses of its secret inner life appearing as it moves.
These pieces are a mixture traditional decorative styles along with some contemporary designs. Many are based on Maori legend while some are modern designs inspired by ancient Maori styles with flowing lines, scrolls and soft forms.
Some of these carvings are large at around 100mm long (4 inches) long while most average about 50mm (2 inches) in length or less.
