Luke Gardiner
The artist behind this creationRaised on the wild and rugged West Coast of New Zealand, Luke still calls Hokitika home. A self-taught artist, he finds his inspiration in nature and has been recreating its beauty in greenstone for over a decade. Luke carefully assesses each piece of jade before deciding which design will best suit. Flawlessness, colour, inner light and visual impact are all important, but his gift for retaining the ‘essence’ and ‘feeling which the raw jade holds, takes his work to a different plane.
The permanence of a heart carved into greenstone embodies your thoughts, feelings and emotions in the perfect expression of love.
The Heart
One of the most renowned and recognised shapes is the heart - a universal symbol of love. To each individual, sharing the form of a heart may mean something unique, but embedded at its core are true feelings of love, unity and care.
