A wonderful Single Pikorua (Twist) handcrafted from Kahurangi Pounamu. This elegant Kahurangi Pikorua showcases a beautiful blend of luminous greens with soft cloudy inclusions, creating depth and natural character throughout the stone. The gentle twist form flows gracefully, symbolising connection and the unbreakable bond between people, journeys, and shared paths.
Carved from Kahurangi pounamu, prized for its clarity and vibrant green tones, this piece carries a refined translucency that catches the light beautifully. Subtle natural variations and earthy flecks add individuality, ensuring each angle reveals something new.
Pikorua/Twist, The Māori single twist or Pikorua resembles two intertwined pikopiko ferns. Representing the paths of ‘life and love’ or ‘friendship or eternity. Because the Pikorua stands for infinite partnership, it makes it a perfect gift for lovers, newlyweds, fiancées, or others who want to emphasise their connection, their love for each other, their loyalty and friendship.
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.
