The Toki is the Maori tribal symbol of strength. Its shape represents an axe head. This carving tool based symbol resembles determination, control, strength and honour. It was traditionally carved in stone or greenstone and was passed down as an heirloom.

Tony Lusty lives in Taranaki and has a life-time passion for working with greenstone.  He does all his own work from cutting the pounamu, to binding and packing his pendants. He also works with rimu, paua shell and other native New Zealand materials.
