This Pikorua is handcrafted from Kawakawa Pounamu, displaying beautiful green tones with natural depth through the stone. The single twist has a clean, flowing line, complemented by two subtle Koru details that sit at the centre and toward the lower curve of the piece. Finished with a soft satin polish, it has a calm presence and refined character, shaped with clarity and balance.
Koru- The Māori word for bright or loop. It refers to the shoots of the silver fern. The circular movement to the inner core refers to "going back to the beginnings". The unfurling frond itself is symbolic for new life, new beginnings, hope, personal growth, purity nurturing, a new phase in life, the spirit of rejuvenation and peace.
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.
