Live Wires celebrated 25 years in business in 2016! Started by Helen Harvey and Jane Webster back in 1991, we have grown to be a leading provider of contemporary gifts and stationery in New Zealand. Jane retired in 2008 and Helen now runs the company based in Petone, Wellington. As a wholesaler, Live Wires distributes to independent retailers with the support of seven sales agents throughout New Zealand. We publish New Zealand designed stationery and gifts as well as importing goods from Europe and the USA. Live Wires prides itself on hunting down the very best the world has to offer. An insistence on quality of design is fundamental to the Live Wires philosophy. Styles range from classic to cutting edge, seasoned with a distinctive dash of quirkiness and humour. Gifts, stationery, calendars, cards and wrap are imported from the UK, Europe and USA. Live Wires work with local independent artists to design unique cards, calendars and wrap, specialising in general and iconic New Zealand themes. We also produce a range of affordable New Zealand giftware, including ceramics, childrens themed wall hangings, tableware and soaps.
