Chrysanthemum Stone

CLICK ON THE STONE OR TEXT BELOW TO SEE PRODUCTS MADE FROM THESE GEMSTONES -

From Coromandel NZ, this is the only place in the world where this type of Chrysanthemum Stone occurs. It is Spherulitic Rhyolite (created by cooling lava crystallised with spheres of radiating clusters of feldspars and quartz). It has lots of little Chrysanthemum type flowers exploding from the stone all over the place, hence every piece is unique and different. This stone is found in very few stores because of its rarity and difficulty to find.

Please note - there is a large percentage of imported chinese stock on our NZ marketplace (up to 80% of all jade you will see on shelves).  This stock is mass produced in China often using child labour.  Please be aware of this when purchasing products throughout NZ and ask where the product comes from.  If they cannot tell you the origin it is more than likely imported product.  Our philosophy is that if the stone is not from NZ we do not work it, and we also do not mass produce any items, as we believe this is not in keeping with the spirit of the stone and NZ.    All of our products come with a Certificate of Authenticity.  Support NZ artists and buy NZ Made.
