Pounamu (Nephrite Jade) Pendants for Sale

Being based in New Zealand, we get asked for Pounamu Pendants from time to time. The New Zealand Pounamu market is quite complex with many pieces not being genuine New Zealand Nephrite Jade, and many pieces that are genuine have been made with a mass produced cookie cutter mindset. The Pounamu central hub in New Zealand is a town called Hokitika. We finally traveled there and scoured the area for a carver we felt put their heart and soul into each piece they create. We found just such a carver in the form of Rex Scott. More than 90% of our items have been created by Rex. We will state on each items sales page if it has been carved by Rex. To learn more about Rex, scroll to the bottom of this page for further information.

In short, were we to gift a beautiful Nephrite Jade Pendant from New Zealand to family or friends – these are the beautiful pendants we would select from ourselves.
