A wonderful Sterling Silver Ring with a claw setting displaying a gorgeous Kahurangi Pounamu oval-cut cabochon. This ring features a beautiful curving ridged detail in the silver where the band joins the setting - a marvelous taonga.
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.
