HOT ! LEOPARD\'S LAIR

LEOPARD\'S LAIR - a large and striking koru pendant carved in New Zealand flower jade.

Crafted by renowned jade artist Kerry Thompson, this large koru pendant exemplifies his signature design aesthetic, blending traditional Maori symbolism with contemporary artistry.

The koru, representing new beginnings and growth, is intricately carved with fluid, organic lines that showcase Kerry’s mastery of form and balance. However, it is the striking colours of the stone that sets this piece apart. The jade features a sandy tan hue, punctuated by delicate black inclusions which Kerry has cleverly placed on the shoulder of the carving - like the spots on a LEOPARD\'s back! This unique combination of colour and texture lends the pendant a bold, dynamic presence, making it a visually arresting work of art.

The craftsmanship and material quality reflect Kerry Thompson’s dedication to creating pieces that are both timeless and distinctive. The precision of the carving has produced an elegant and harmonious piece that is a testament to Kerry’s artistic vision, and a celebration of the inherent character of New Zealand jade.

LEOPARD\'S LAIR eye-catching appeal and symbolic resonance will make it a standout addition to any collection!

LEOPARD\'S LAIR is provided with an adjustable length cord.

LEOPARD\'S LAIR is a carefully thought through pendant, with considerable history sitting behind the design.

The Koru: the Māori word for \'loop\'. The spiral shaped koru design represents an unfolding silver fern frond. The circular movement towards an inner coil refers to ‘going back to the beginning’.  The unfurling frond itself is symbolic of new life, new beginnings, hope and rebirth.

The shape is streamlined, gloriously curved and quite unique. Take a look at the video and you will appreciate the artistry of this beautiful piece.

LEOPARD\'S LAIR is lovingly packaged in a woven kete pouch.
