K	Kevin Sidey on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I wanna thank KATENE for the experience and korero also guiding me through my first pounamu...it's not what my intentions were at first, you were welcoming and that matters CHER BRO...Also Steve was a pleasure to meet THE MAN himself, thanks for the Koha I will treasure it, cheers guys
S	Sarah Hart on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Friendly and fun! Walked in to turn a round stone quickly into a necklace before heading on the road outta town. Had a good laugh :)
B	Barb Landis on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nice little jade shop that gives the option to carve your own. It takes about 4 hrs to make your own piece with help from the jade master. It turned out very nice and I highly recommend trying to make it yourself. It's a ton of fun!
L	Lancelot Yu on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amazing experience with a special story! My wife and I went there in honeymoon and spent a wonderful afternoon with them. It's very unfortunate that I broke my piece at the last step, but they helped me to redesign and repair it, and it's now perfect. It's a meaningful gift for my wife and it looks beautiful on her! Would definitely recommend everyone to visit and enjoy some time carving.
M	Matt Stanford on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We visited Steve at Bonz 'n' Stonz looking to get a family set of taonga made from a single pice of pounamu. Steve was incredible friendly, patient, and friendly in helping is select a piece and designs. We have left the designs for Steve to make and then send to us, and we cannot wait to receive them. After leaving the store, my son (10) said "I think he is the nicest person I have ever met" of Steve. Thanks for a great experience.
J	Jack Paki on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ For a long time now Ange and I have been planning to gift each other Pounamu taonga to wear. We had been waiting to visit Hokitika knowing that our taonga were there waiting for us. We weren't disappointed. We visited the shops that had pounamu that were open, including Bonz n Stonz. We were directed back to Bonz n Stonz by another shop and by my own gut feeling. This time we spoke to Steve and Katene. I told them my story. Immediately Steve showed me a piece and Katene went to his house to bring me a piece he wanted me to look at. We agreed on a piece. Ange saw a piece that she really liked. Katene Immediately went to work and added designs to both our pieces which mirrored each other. Fantastic. Because of my special work in the community Steve gifted a special piece to me, a mauri stone which on essence binds and animates all things in the physical world. Stonz n Bonz is real. Steve and Katene will help you choose your special taonga with sincerity, humility and grace. Steve and Katene, you are very special people. To all people in New Zealand and/or visiting Hokitika searching for the 'one off' special taonga (treasure) pop in and see Steve and Katene. You can even carve your own piece with their help. No reira, tena korua nga matua.
C	Carl K on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Loved my first green stone making experience! Didn’t expect to enjoy the process this much and really happy with the final outcome as well. The instruction was helpful and patient, staff are friendly and cool, really learned a lot and had fun!
B	Ben Kern on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Steve created these two beautiful bespoke pieces for my wife and I to offer to each other as anniversary gifts. We had some very specific requests and Steve was amazing about making sure they were both just right and we truly couldn't be happier with the results. Even if you can't make it to the shop for a carving workshop (which you definitely should do if you can) Steve will take orders online and mail commissions to anywhere in NZ. 11/10 can not recommend highly enough!
