A beautiful pair of New Zealand Kahurangi Pounamu and Sterling Silver Round CAIM Earrings - a delicate design combining modern shape with age old tradition.
CAIM is the Celtic tradition of casting a protective ring or circle representing protection, sanctuary and a circle of spiritual safety.
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 in order 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.

This is an example of the earrings you will receive. You may not receive this exact pair, but ones that are similar. This is due to each Earring being carved from natural Greenstone where the colouring will differ depending on the elements in the stone.
