Every home should have at least one... handcrafted and hand-finished, each of Kapiti Tufa products is an individual. From the smallest boulder-shaped pot and pukeko, to gargantuan balls and the largest water features, Steve Archer and Dave Taylor carefully mix the ingredients, ensure the item is properly dried, pare the surface back to reveal the true tufa and apply the finishing touches.
While the plain tufa, with its solid earthy look and feel, remains a favourite with customers, increasingly a little of New Zealand's true gem, paua, or maybe some pink mussel shell, is creating a stir when combined with the tufa texture. When set in a piece of tufa that is going to stay wet, the paua sparkles and shines in the sunlight, adding another dimension to your fine piece of garden art from Kapiti.
After spending seven years developing his recipes and methods, and with the range continuing to evolve all the time, Steve, Kapiti Tufa founding director, is convinced his is the most refined product on the market.
"It's the smooth edges, even on the chunkiest pieces, and the secret ingredients we use to ensure our water features don't crack and are easy to clean, that make the difference."
From table tops, lacquered for an impressive sheen, to bench seats, Easter Island heads, water features, urns, pots and pukekos, Kapiti's Tufa Pots will ensure your piece of garden art will make a statement in your outdoor living area for years to come.
