Authentic West Coast Pounamu (Jade) found by Garth Wilson
My name is Garth Wilson. My family connections with carving pounamu (Jade, greenstone) go back hundreds of years to the Maori tribes Ngati Mahaki and Ngati Waewae who were the original traders of pounamu (Jade) here on the West Coast of the South Island of New Zealand. Because of these family connections I have special customary rights to gather my own Pounamu (jade) from the local rivers and mountains.

Each piece of pounamu (jade) is personally carved by Garth Wilson
I personally carve all the pounamu (Jade, greenstone) works in my studio and each design has its own story. You’ll be able to watch me carve, handle some of the best pounamu (Jade) rocks that my whanau/family and I have found over the years on the West Coast of the South Island.
Buy a hand carved pounamu piece from our online shop or visit me in my studio.
If you are looking for a special piece of pounamu (Jade, greenstone), just browse the pounamu (Jade) of interest below and buy immediately online or come and see me in my studio on the road to Shantytown. I look forward to meeting you soon!
