This beautiful Koru Hei Matau pendant has been hand carved from New Zealand pounamu (greenstone/jade) by Moreton carvers based in Hokitika, South Island.
The koru shape is based on the unfurling fern frond, symbolising new growth, new life, peace, and tranquillity.
The Matau is the Māori name for fishhook, and is a symbol of determination, strength, provision, and safe travel over water.
