Restoration Testimonials

  • What beautiful mahi

    "Oh my goodness! When I was reunited with my taonga I was thoroughly impressed. What beautiful mahi, responsive service and just an overall amazing experience. Instead of wasting the ends they suggested using the ends to make another pair which I will gift to my moko for her 14th birthday."

    - Sue W.

  • Went above and beyond!

    "I enquired about fashioning a necklace out of my broken larger piece. The team was very understanding about my specific needs and time-/budget limitations. They went above and beyond! I am super happy about the end result - 2 beautifully bound necklaces, even the smaller piece was reused! Thank you for your expertise and warm welcome at your (work)shop. Wonderful people and a true family business!!"
