This Nelson Chromium Jade toki is a striking expression of natural character and skilled craftsmanship. Carved from locally sourced Nelson jade, the stone displays beautiful soft green tones infused with deeper blue-green and grey veining — a distinctive feature of chromium-rich jade that gives each piece its own organic, flowing pattern.
The clean, strong lines of the toki are complemented by a hand-lashed binding in rich earthy cord, adding both visual contrast and a sense of tradition. The toki form is traditionally associated with strength, determination, and purposeful action, symbolising the ability to shape one’s path through skill and perseverance.
Grounded, timeless, and unmistakably from Nelson, New Zealand, this piece is a wearable connection to the land and the raw beauty of its stone — ideal for those who value authenticity, meaning, and natural elegance.
