Robert Singer
The artist behind this creationSince Robert found his first piece of jade at 5 years old, the stone has been both a fascination and a muse. Fast forward to the late seventies, when Robert got his formal start in the jade industry - serving an apprenticeship as lapidarian on New Zealand’s West Coast. Jade was plentiful in this area at the time and he quickly discovered a spirit of creativity that carving allowed him to explore. Scrimshaw and etching are trademarks of Robert’s jade art. Through this intricate sculptural medium, Robert expresses his love of nature and the great outdoors.
We reserve some of the finest quality stone, and work with a limited number New Zealand's very best carvers and jewellers, to create exceptional greenstone statement pieces.
