Nourishment, Nature
and Our Ethos

Ever since he was a child, recycling used matchsticks off the promenade for model making, David has imbued his creativity with a sense of care. Care is the essence of craft. That care ranges from caring about the longevity of a well-made product, to caring that the owner is enriched by it and—most important of all now—caring for its effect on the environment. That caring continues to be embedded in the company today.

Giving Back to the Community.

A portion of each sale goes to the Maraetōtara Tree Trust or Sustainable Coastlines NZ. Both charities have a similar vision: That future generations can enjoy what we all took for granted as children; a place with clean water, native bush and birdsong.
To protect, enhance and restore the Maraetōtara River from the top of the Maraetōtara Valley to its outflow into Hawke's Bay at Te Awanga beach. One New Zealand native tree is planted for every three lights sold through our permanent partnership with the Maraetōtara Tree Trust. This trust is local to us, thus we can visit the positive effects our customers are contributing to!
