Today, we are heading to Bonz ‘N” Stonz to carve our own greenstone in Hokitika! We will be greenstone carving in Hokitika to carve each other a Maori greenstone pendant!
Greenstone is also known as jade or pounamu in Maori. We head to Bonz ‘N’ Stonz where we meet Steve. We have been planning our jade designs for a few days now that we are going to carve for each other and today we are finally revealing our designs. Steve helps us tweak our designs then it’s time to choose the greenstone we are going to carve.
The jade carving in Hokitika starts in the jade carving studio which is a long but fun and therapeutic process. We take plenty of breaks in between and enjoy a nice chilled day of carving greenstone necklaces.
Our jade pendants are really coming together and with some polishing, our carved jade pendants look really professional! Now we have an awesome greenstone souvenir to remember our time in New Zealand!
So what do you think of carve your own jade in Hokitika? Is carving your own greenstone pendant something you would add to your New Zealand bucket list?

Fresh bone, skills, Tools, long term survival.
Long term survival skills may require the use of animal bone tool and other items.
It is a skill that needs understanding of which bone are best suited for different tools, items and, the tool functional requirements.
Equally as important, the availability and, supporting skills required to make or find tools to process the cleaning of the bone and, carving the final product.
For example, rendered fat (tallow) and bone marrow can be used by rubbing the final product to help prevent the natural drying and cracking as the bone ages.
I have only touched on the basics, made mistakes and still learning basic knowledge and skills.
