Te Wahi Pounamu - the place of greenstone.  

Single Rau Kumara or Twist with Koru detail in Kahurangi Greenstone.

 Rau Kumara is a stylised and more contemporary piece that symbolises a strength of bond in love, friendship and loyalty between two people. With the addition of the Koru - literally meaning ‘curl’, these taonga depict an unfurling fern frond. In Māori culture, the young shoots of the fern symbolise new life, growth and rejuvenation. A deeply meaningful piece.

Kawakawa -The strongest and darkest of the stones. A black fleck can occur, greatly enhancing its character. Named after a native plant, used for medicinal and culinary purposes
