Moko Pounamu Jewellery NZ Genuine Inanga Pounamu & 9kt Gold Ring - Aukati
This stunning ring features a beautiful oval stone, cut from Inanga Pounamu, and set in a 14kt Gold clasp setting and band. The band is slender, giving added weight to the gorgeously detailed filigreed surrounds of the clasp setting, and showing the wonderful greenstone to its best.
Inanga – This pounamu takes its name from a freshwater fish native to New Zealand. It is pale and often transparent, like the young of the Inanga fish. It is pearly white to grey green in colour, and ranges from translucent to quite opaque. It can change colour over time, developing a light olive tint as it ages and oxidises - Highly prized by the Māori and the desired material for making Mere and Patu.
