The Story
Korowai are a cloak-like garment, made from woven flax. Sometimes long ‘pin’s were used to close the front securely.
Flower Jade is the name given to the pounamu with beautiful orange and gold markings. It’s unique beauty was formed as it was rolled and compressed, rolled and compressed under a glacier for many millions of years. It was then deposited in the Marsden valley as the glacier melted and receded. While some do not desire the golden variations, we believe it creates a stone with character and unique style.
