Little Treasures of New Zealand - Ceramic Wall Pieces

$49.00 NZD
Select Your Piece
Colour

Three small pieces with a connection to home. A pāua shell, a woven kete and a heart with a fern frond bring together familiar New Zealand forms, with detailed textures that catch the glaze and give each design its character. Group them together to brighten a small wall space, or choose a single favourite as a thoughtful gift or keepsake.

Choose the set of three, containing one of each design, or buy pieces individually to create your own combination.

  • Pāua: New Zealand’s native abalone, the Paua shell is famous for its brilliant colours. Maori used the Paua shell in religious ceremonies, and as a decoration for taonga (treasures).

  • Kete: A kete is a beautiful woven basket, crafted by hand from native New Zealand harakeke (flax). To the Maori the kete is not only useful but also a valued treasure and product of the artist’s hands, energy, and creativity.

  • Heart with Fern Frond: The heart is a symbol of life and love. The fern frond, New Zealand’s emblem, represents new life and new beginnings.

Available in Wild Green, Dark Teal, Aqua and Natural. Natural features a rich brown oxide wash, wiped back to reveal the light porcelain clay beneath and highlight the details.

Each piece measures approximately 5 cm x 5 cm and has a wire loop at the back for hanging.

Handcrafted by Bright Side Ceramics in Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand.

About these designs: Pāua, Kete and Heart with Fern Frond are original JS Ceramics designs by Jen in Te Puke. After Jen stepped away from ceramics, Bright Side Ceramics, our ceramics brand here at Dee’s Bees, acquired the collection so these distinctive New Zealand designs could continue to be made. Today we handcraft them in Hawke’s Bay.

International Orders and Bee Products

We send our beeswax candles, wraps, DIY blend, and polishes  worldwide and have never had a problem with border restrictions.   Generally finished beeswax products are acceptable for import in most countries.

However, in some countries raw beeswax may not to be allowed in order to protect the health of their local bees.  We get it.  After all, Kev and  Dee are beekeepers, first and foremost.  On that basis, we opt to make our beeswax blocks and pellets available to New Zealand addresses only. 

Some countries may have various border or import charges - please note that you will be responsible for any such charges. 

  

What about packaging?  Do you use plastic?

We're committed to eliminating plastic wherever we can - the clear bags our kits are packaged in are NOT plastic.  They are genuine cellophane, made from vegetable cellulose and are fully biodegradable and home compostable. 

And we're very happy to announce that the black courier bags we use are also NOT plastic!  They are made from plants and are fully biodegradable, and home compostable.  

Recently we've also introduced coloured courier bags which are made of recycled plastic and these can be re-recycled in your soft plastics.
