The NZSouvenirs Team Our wooden gifts page is comprised only of native New Zealand wood. It includes everything from fish platters to very unique tablemats and coasters. Because we are a rugby nation we also have the rugby ball shaped tablemat and matching coasters. There are a variety of business card holders and two fantastic Rimu clocks. Chopping boards, cheese boards and rulers. The photo albums and frames page is a delight to anyone. The albums have black pages and we find often a silver pen is purchased from a stationers and used for writing throughout. The photo frames and from Heritage NZ and are beautifully designed. We take our Skincare seriously and have included only the best most popular products. These include the Manuka Honey range. The Alpine Silk lanolin, the Royal Jelly and the Rotorua Mud. These are the top ranges sold throughout the country and judging from the feedback they are the most successful. Merino Possum knitwear is a very special blend. Not many people know that although it is much lighter to wear it is far warmer than the average woolen garment. The possum fur is to fine to weave into anything by itself but when those fine hairs are blended with sheeps wool (Merino) they create an incredibly warm soft light material. Most of our T-shirts are New Zealand made. They are pre washed and will not shrink much at all. All of our Ugg Boots are the official legal licenced New Zealand Ugg boots. As per the licencing agreements we can only send them within Australasia - (New Zealand and Australia) They are very sought after, but don't worry if we run out of stock in the store it only take an extra couple of days to get new stocks in.
