This Porohita pendant is hand carved from Kawakawa Pounamu, with a central opening that gives the piece a calm, balanced presence. The stone displays deep green tones with gentle natural movement, and the light coloured cord is bound cleanly at the top to complete the modern look. Smoothly finished, it carries understated warmth and refined simplicity.
Porohita/The Disc - Represents the circle of life which has no beginning or end. It means you have a choice to do and achieve whatever you want to in life. Its curved lines also represent the idea of energy and movement and like the cyclical nature of time and seasons, where one path ends, another begins. The Disc is also believed to have protective qualities and can symbolize a shield or a boundary that keeps negative influences and harm at bay.
Kawakawa- is the most common variety of Pounamu. it comes in many shades - from strong, rich green to dark green - and often has small dark flecks, which add to its character. Named after the leaf of the Kawakawa. It is the main type used in gem purposes.
