"I love design and being creative. I love ideas and the fizz of them becoming reality, whether in precious metals, gemstones, paint, spaces or technology.
To me my whole life is creative – whether it’s painting, designing a piece of jewellery, building a house, designing/landscaping a garden, or designing/developing a website!
Vicki Comrie-Moore has been immersed in clay and sculpture from a young age. Her passion was sparked early on when she took a class with two established potters in Wellington — an experience that set her creative journey in motion.
Treat your loved one, friend or yourself with a beautiful Sally Herbert necklace, ring or pendant from The Little Black Gallery. Beautiful craftsmanship - a piece of jewellery a lifetime.

GREAT FUN TO DO FOR EVERYONE
The Getting Lost Game changes the way you adventure and sightsee!
Often we’re all led by the same searches, blogs and feeds. BUT the Getting Lost Game helps you find the real hidden gems – the ones you won’t find in the guide books or in search – and supports those small businesses along the way.
It’s a great way to see more of the country (or even just your own backyard). It’s the perfect companion on holidays, weekend road trips, or a Sunday drive.
