Filigree
About
Filigree serves South Island from its base at 447 Colombo Street in Sydenham, Christchurch. As a jewellery shop, it deals in pieces that carry the craft tradition its name suggests.
Visitors have awarded Filigree a rating of 4.8 out of 5 from 47 reviews, a score that speaks to steady satisfaction among those who have stopped by. The Colombo Street setting in Sydenham places it within Christchurch, one of the island's main urban centres. Other towns across the South Island, including Queenstown, Dunedin, Nelson and Wanaka, sit within the broader region the shop serves. Further information is available through the shop's website at http://www.filigree.co.nz/.
Christchurch anchors the northern part of the South Island, and the city's grid makes the Sydenham area straightforward to navigate by car. Traffic drives on the left across New Zealand, and hire cars remain the usual way to travel between the island's larger centres.
New Zealand's weather shifts quickly, and the surrounding ocean keeps both summer heat and winter frost moderate, so layers are useful for anyone moving between towns. Polynesian settlers reached these islands around the thirteenth century, and the country's long, narrow shape means almost nowhere sits far from the sea. For those touring the South Island, a stop at Filigree fits naturally into time spent in Christchurch.
