The Warrior By Adam White

Hand carved from a huge piece of very rare Marsden Pounamu (often called flower jade for its strong colours), this amazing one of a kind sculpture illustrates the two faces of the Maori Warrior.
It is mounted on a large piece of polished native driftwood and also features hand made hair of local plant fibres just as ropes were made my the ancient Maori.
The Head is fitted onto the base with a jade pin  so can be lifted off the base easily

This has been a true labour of love for Adam and showcases not only his incredible skill as an artist but his passion for the Maori culture.  It will never be repeated so will remain the most unique example of  sculpture in Pounamu that has been seen in New Zealand for many years.
