Moko Pounamu, Bone Carving Koru

Koru - The Maori word for

bright or loop. It refers to the shoots of the silver fern. The circular

movement to the inner core refers to "going back to the beginnings".

The unfurling frond itself is symbolic for new life, new beginnings, hope,

personal growth, purity nurturing, a new phase in life, the spirit of

rejuvenation and peace.

Traditionally carved from Whale bone, however these days many bone carvings are made from cattle bone as it is an ethically abundant source.
