About Westland Schist
Westland Schist is a proud family-owned business based on the wild and beautiful West Coast of New Zealand. We specialise in handcrafting natural stone products sourced from local rivers, beaches, and alpine areas. From paving and walling to hearths and feature pieces, every stone we work with is unique — just like the landscapes it comes from. Built by nature, crafted by us.
Our Story
Westland Schist began with a love for the land and a deep respect for the raw beauty of the West Coast. Surrounded by rugged mountains, wild rivers, and ancient beaches, we saw not just stone — but stories waiting to be told.
What started as a small, hands-on operation has grown into a trusted name in natural stone. We still do things the old-fashioned way: hand-picking each rock, shaping it with care, and working closely with our clients to create pieces that are truly one-of-a-kind. Every stone carries the unique colours, textures, and energy of the place it came from.
We’re proud to supply architects, builders, landscapers, and home DIYers across New Zealand and all over the world with stone that’s not only beautiful, but built to last. Whether it's a feature wall, a fire hearth, a paving project or any landscaping DIY, when you choose Westland Schist, you're choosing a piece of the Coast — rugged, timeless, and real.
