Here at Darryn Rae Carving you won't find a team of people, a laser cutter whirring away or any kind of mass production. What you will find is a man dedicated to his craft.

With days (and nights) spent at his workbench here in picturesque Cromwell, Central Otago, everything you see is handmade to the highest standard. With sketchbooks and scrap paper filled with one-of-a-kind design ideas, each Darryn Rae Carving is designed to be a Heirloom Toanga, preserving the story of the stone for years to come.
