Celebrating our National Rugby Team, The All Blacks

The All Blacks are the most successful international men’s rugby side of all-time with a winning percentage of 76.77% over 637 Tests (1903-2023).

Since playing their first Test match in 1903, the All Blacks have amassed numerous accolades and are considered one of the most prolific teams across any sport. The All Blacks are the first rugby team to win 500 Test matches and have three Rugby World Cups to their name, winning the title in 2011 and 2015, adding to the inaugural Cup they claimed in 1987. They have also won 10 of the 16 Tri-Nations trophies, seven of the nine Rugby Championships contested, and have most recently have held the Bledisloe Cup for 20 years (2003-2023). The All Blacks also won the Tri-Nations in 2020 contested against Australia and Argentina.

Each carving is handcrafted from Genuine NZ Greenstone. Each piece is unique in the greenstone used and the design carved. This is an example of the carving that you will receive, you will not receive this exact piece but one that is very similar.

A shepherd’s whistle is used predominantly by the farmer to communicate commands to his sheepdogs and is often seen at sheepdog trials. These pounamu whistles won’t bend or buckle over time like metal or plastic and produce clear, high frequency tones that are easy to modulate and vary the pitch. This allows the shepherd to communicate many different commands to his dogs giving precise instructions using only the whistle. The frequency is at optimal pitch for the dog’s hearing and allows to sound to penetrate through adverse weather and long distance when rounding sheep.

The perfect gift for anyone working with dogs and the bonus of looking as a pendant off the farm.

All carvings are packaged in an All Blacks display case with a hologram authenticity sticker and Genuine NZ Greenstone Information card. They are hand bound in our Bespoke All Blacks Cord.

Size 42mm long x 30mm wide (approx. size as each carving will differ slightly)
