This elegant Moko Pounamu Contemporary Koru is carved from NZ genuine Auhunga pounamu, known for its soft green tones and mist like variations that give the stone a calm and refined appearance. The flowing drop form curves gracefully inward, creating a modern, sculptural design that feels both natural and expressive.
Auhunga pounamu is admired for its smooth, cloud-like patterning and subtle tonal movement. The polished finish enhances the stone’s gentle variations, revealing layers of soft greens and natural depth that shift beautifully as light moves across the surface.
The contemporary drop design represents flow, growth, and forward movement. Its organic form reflects the idea of moving through life with strength and purpose, making this piece both visually striking and symbolically meaningful.
Auhunga- Genuine West Coast Greenstone from the Arahura River area, West Coast. Auhunga Pounamu is a pale opaque green colour. Resembling the Southern New Zealand mountains, its --name translates to frosty, given as the intermediate of Inanga and Kawakawa.
