This is an original, one of a kind, design by Robinson Design Goldsmith. It is based on the New Zealand Tiki and is made of 24 Karat Gold Bullion. This bad boy weighs 2 pounds and is 6” tall.

To make such a masterpiece has taken a lot of work. They hand hammered sheets of pure gold into different shapes, while the intricate details were hand-cast from hand carved patterns. They have certainly mastered a technique that was new to them. The end result is a one of a kind piece of art that is exactly what they had envisioned. Watch the video below to check out these artists hard at work on this awesome one of a kind peice.
