INANGA Greenstone Pounamu Jade Nephrite POLISHED Green Blue Superb PYRAMID TOKI
AUTHENTIC Shane McIntosh Wearable ADZE! MADE FROM MOST SOUGHT AFTER BLUE GREEN INANGA JADE with SOME FAINT rivers & spots. This PYRAMID SLOPING TOKI is special with Fantastic Binding, adjustable Length. You will find a good quantity of Shanes real quality carvings in my shop only (Ask for a specific design and I can have it made especially for you by Shane).

LIGHT BLUE GREEN COLOR WITH SOME BEAUTIFUL FAINT GREEN RIVERS. WITH THE BEST TRADITIONAL BINDING POSSIBLE. Toki is SMs new diversification and his fluency and fabulous finishing shows in everything he does!

Toki is an adze used for carving wood; this is lashed with braided cord in a style unique to NZ. The carvers developed a style of wearing this around the neck so their prized possession (wood carving tool) will not be misplaced. What is a QUALITY Toki?

The binding (also called lashing) sits inside the well notched slot, which has been created by cutting out the Jade on the sides locking the cords & reducing friction and movement of the cord, much more extra work than just binding over the jade. No shortcuts taken of sticking the cord to the jade that later comes off. Cord is perfectly bound not showing any Jade beneath through windows. Toki is sloping widthwise means extra grinding. Toki is sloping thickness wise means extra grinding.

Toki is ground at the back to make it rounded. Cord going around the neck is braided.

Sliding cord which allows you to adjust the length as per your requirements. Has sliding knots with ends finished in lashed/bound molten knots to have a secure slip knot, unlike the knotted ends found in cheaper versions. VERY FINELY CARVED, A PIECE OF VERY FINE CARVING WITH EXTREME TRANSLUCENCY.

82 X 26 X 8 Mms. 3 1/4 X 1 X 1/3 Inches.

COMES WITH WAXED BRAIDED CORD (ADJUSTABLE LENGTH) READY TO WEAR! HIGH POLISH with fantastic pleasant feel! Made in New Zealand by New Zealand Carver in New Zealand Greenstone!
