About Anthony Bray-Heta
About Anthony Bray-Heta
Anthony Bray-Heta is a New Zealand-born jewellery artist and carver whose work brings together Māori, Celtic and contemporary design.
Working across bone, sterling silver and gold, Anthony creates pieces that are individually handcrafted and shaped around meaning, story and personal connection.
His work is influenced by traditional carving, symbolic pattern and the idea that jewellery can carry more than decoration — it can hold identity, memory, protection, heritage and a sense of belonging.
Anthony apprenticed under renowned New Zealand Master Carver Alan Nopera, refining traditional carving techniques while developing his own distinctive approach to design.
Over time, his work has evolved into a fusion of Māori forms, Celtic knotwork and contemporary jewellery, with each piece carefully balanced for both visual strength and wearability.
From carved bone pendants to sculptural silver and gold pieces, every work is made by hand with close attention to detail, proportion and finish.
For Anthony, the most meaningful pieces are often those created for a specific person or story — something that can be worn, carried and passed on.
Every piece is handcrafted to carry meaning.
