The Rākau Pendant is the outcome of an exciting collaboration between Marty @ Thornton Studio & Mr Ralph.
These glorious recycled NZ native Rimu Pendants are hand turned in sunny Cambridge, NZ. Because they are recycled and from natural hard wood, the finish/colour of them can vary, depending on whether the wood is from the heart of the tree or not. They also feature the occasional mark or indent where old nails may have been used during its history. We think this all adds to them being completely custom and special.
The timber used to make these beautiful pieces comes from locally sourced demolition timber. These have been bearers from the sub-floor framing of Classic Waikato homes. Each piece of timber has its own characteristics, and the subtle colour changes and grain provides its own unique beauty. Though all attempts have been made to make each pendant dimensionally accurate, their handmade nature means they are not all exact as you would get from a machine created product. They are finished with Danish Oil for a matte finish.
About Marty: Marty is such a craftsperson; he loves working with wood and we are very privileged to be collaborating with him. Marty makes these stunning pendants at home on his trusty Lathe, usually with his beautiful GSP baby, Apollo, sitting underneath and getting wood clippings on his head! These designs are just the beginning of what we hope to achieve together.

Earthy, Natural, Handmade, Unique
The Organic style celebrates the handmade nature of products and suits an interior that wishes to highlight a unique, one of a kind piece. It is richer in colour and form than Boho and can work across all types of homes. Think of a super minimalist home with one handmade pendant over a dining table or an eclectic abode with a different colour and style of pendant or wall light in each room. This style is about celebrating and investing in custom pieces from small artists and makers in New Zealand to villages around the world.
