Genuine NZ Greenstone Toki Koru Necklace

Embrace the spirit of Aotearoa with this exquisite genuine NZ Greenstone Toki Koru Necklace. This piece seamlessly blends the rich symbolism of Maori heritage, offering both cultural significance and striking beauty.

The Toki: A Symbol of Strength and Wisdom

The Toki, an adze, holds deep meaning in Maori culture. Historically a vital tool for shaping wood and stone, and at times employed as a weapon, the Toki, when crafted into jewelry like this hei toki, became a symbol of leadership and authority. It signified the wearer's power, wisdom, and experience.

The Koru: A Promise of New Beginnings

Adding a layer of profound symbolism, the Koru, a spiral design inspired by the unfolding fern frond, graces the Toki. It represents peace, tranquility, new beginnings, and positive change. Together, the Toki and Koru create a powerful combination, representing both inner strength and the promise of a bright future.

The toki pounamu measures approximately 4.8cm (1 7/8") long and is meticulously bound at the top. It suspends gracefully from a long, adjustable black cord. Crafted from the finest Hokitika pounamu, this necklace is a tangible connection to the natural beauty and cultural richness of New Zealand.

Shipped worldwide, this necklace is more than just an accessory – it's a statement.
