THE STINGER - a gorgeous matau pendant, hand carved by Shaun Gardiner.
Carved from an exceptional piece of jade, this is a really wonderful piece of carved art - quirky and unmissable, it is very cool!
THE STINGER exhibits the quirky approach Shaun takes when carving jade - beautifully defined, carved with flair and a high degree of skill, and using gorgeous New Zealand pounamu.
The colouring in the stone is remarkable - a deep emerald green colour with a semi-translucent glow!
If you are going to gift this piece, we suggest that you wear it for a day or two - it will carry your mana (spirit) forever.
We will let the photos, and the video, speak to the gentle design and the lovely green colours in the jade.
THE STINGER is provided with an adjustable Pineapple cord, if you would like a different coloured cord please let us know in the comments section at checkout.
Take a look at the video and you will appreciate the artistry of this fantastic piece.
Included in your package are our 'Kia Ora' cards, which explain the meaning behind the Hook and Koru designs.
THE STINGER is lovingly packaged in a woven kete pouch.
DELIVERY WITH EXPRESS COURIER IS INCLUDED IN THE PRICE.
