Pounamu Pendant Double Twist Kahurangi

$355.00
Code:MORETON54
This beautiful, double twist (Pikorua) pendant by Dean Moreton is crafted from New Zealand Kawakawa Pounamu (NZ Greenstone).

The twist, or Pikorua, beautifully resembles two intertwined pikopiko ferns. This elegant form symbolizes the enduring paths of 'life and love' or 'friendship and eternity'. Representing infinite partnership, the Pikorua is a perfect gift for lovers, newlyweds, fiancés, or anyone wishing to emphasize their deep connection, love, loyalty, and friendship.

Kahurangi pounamu, a name meaning "precious or prized possession" in Māori, is a highly valued and exquisitely translucent type of greenstone. It's celebrated for its exceptional clarity and vibrant green hue, often graced with subtle, cloud-like inclusions. Traditionally, Kahurangi was reserved for items of significant status and importance, such as ceremonial adzes belonging to chiefs.

Deane Moreton learnt his craft whilst working alongside his father in the family pounamu (greenstone) business. With over 30 years’ experience in sourcing and handcrafting New Zealand Pounamu, Deane is now one of New Zealand’s experts in the industry.
