This elegant Contemporary Single Pikorua is carved from NZ genuine Kahurangi pounamu, treasured for its smooth texture and luminous green tones. The stone displays a soft, even colouring with subtle translucency, giving the piece a refined and graceful appearance.
The flowing single pikorua (twist) design creates a modern interpretation of a traditional Māori symbol. Smooth curves intertwine naturally, forming a balanced and harmonious shape that feels both timeless and contemporary. The sleek carving allows the stone’s natural clarity and gentle glow to take centre stage.
Kahurangi- Genuine West Coast Greenstone from the Marsden, West Coast area. Kahurangi is the rarest variety of pounamu. It is highly translucent and often comes in vivid shades of green. Small, feather-like markings in the stone can give a cloud effect – although to be classed as Kahurangi, this effect must not reduce the stone’s clarity. The word Kahurangi also indicates nobility and refers to precious jewels and held in high esteem by Māori.
