Yellowhead/Mōhua - Tourmaline Vases

Yellowhead/Mōhua - Tourmaline VasesThe Yellowhead is a small bird that early settlers called the bush canary because of its colour and loud, melodious song. Today it often goes by its Mori name Mhua. Once abundant in nature, its beautiful song used to boom through New Zealand's native forests. Unfortunately, deforestation and the introduction of predators has meant these beautiful birds are now only found in a few isolated beech forests. Dimensions (approx.): L 15cm W 17cm D 9cm Cast

Wall hung ceramic Dragonfly by New Zealand ceramic artist Jo Beckett

you could see the inexorable swelling of the land towards the peak of the mountain

but to be treasured and bring more beauty into everyday

The flower has a dowel that fits the base

each Wall Spirit still carries its own distinct personality
