Genuine New Zealand Pounamu (Greenstone), sourced and hand carved in Aotearoa (New Zealand). Pounamu is of great cultural significance for Māori and is believed to enhance mana (prestige) of its possessor.
In Māori mythology, a fish hook, or Hei Matau, crafted from whale bone was used to pull up New Zealand's North Island. The hook is traditionally seen as a symbol of strength, determination, leadership, peace, prosperity and good fortune.
