Pounamu Hunting Part 3

This video invites you on a peaceful beachcombing adventure along the stunning shores of New Zealand. Follow me as I explore the coastline, searching for hidden treasures in the form of serpentine and other intriguing stones. The solitude of the beach provides a backdrop for my thoughts on stone identification – how to tell serpentine from other rocks and how the colors come alive when the stones are wet. Join me for the thrill of discovery as I share my haul from the day.

Back in my workshop, the anticipation builds as I cut open the stones for the first time. See the excitement of the big reveal and witness the stunning colors and patterns within! If you love the beauty of natural stones and the art of transforming them, this video is for you.
