Hand-carved NZ Pounamu
Hassle-free returnsThis Hei Matau Sculpture measures 146mm x 94mm and 169mm x 129mm including the base. The Hei Matau symbol is known for safe journeys, strength, and the steady guidance needed to move forward with purpose. Ric Moor’s craftsmanship brings these qualities to life with clean, confident lines shaped from a single piece of pounamu. The form encourages thoughts of resilience, responsibility and the ability to navigate new waters with assurance. Placed in any setting, it carries a quiet presence that speaks to reliability and good faith.
The artist behind this creationRic has worked as a jade carver for more than 17 years. He was initially attracted to jade as a medium because of its sense of permanency.
Through his craft he has been able to discover and define himself as a person, a teacher, as kaitiaki of pounamu and as a New Zealander - Ngāti Pākehā - who identifies strongly with Māori culture.
