Hi everyone, this is a really yummy block of genuine West Coast kawakawa Pounamu, with gorgeous rich green colouring - (see back lit pic). Stone is supported by some inclusions ie iron and flaws only giving this stone some serious character and beauty - hold together well and takes a good polishes. An awesome impacting large show piece for any Greenstone collection or the carver stash. Slice and Toki pendant in pics are from this stone and is to show workability, translucency and finish and are not included - the Auction is for the 22 lbs block only, however they are available in my other listings.

Note - This is Genuine New Zealand Jade legally Mined by Westland Greenstone prior to the 1997 treaty with Ngai Tahu - then legally purchased by me - and is available to own - please note that I only have a certain amount of this left to sell and it can no longer be commercially mined so if you want some before it runs out don't miss this stunning block. - cheers Glen
