The Toki (adze) is far more than a carving tool; it is a symbol of unwavering determination and mastery. Its blade demanded precision, strength, and respect; qualities that transformed it into a symbol of power and leadership often worn as a pendant by chiefs and elders. Today, it serves as a talisman, inspiring the wearer to face life's challenges with the same resilience and skill as the ancestors who wielded it.
The 3 lines represent the 3 Baskets of Knowledge.
Te Kete Tuauri carries ancestral knowledge and rituals. Te Kete Aronui brings knowledge of the natural world and the arts. Te Kete Tuatea holds knowledge of good and evil, teaching and learning.
The 3 lines can also represent Past, Present and Future, or Ancestors, the ones living now and the generations to come.
NZ Serpentine rich black and green hues, is said to be a wonderful stone to create a strong connection to Papatūānuku, aiding in meditation and spiritual exploration. Clears the chakras and opens the crown, creating balance and a sense of control over ones life. Helps to direct healing energy to problem areas.
The sacred stone of Aotearoa. Pounamu of this beautiful land encompasses nephrite jade, serpentine, and tangiwai (bowenite). To the Māori of New Zealand, Pounamu (greenstone) is more than just a stone, it is a taonga (treasure) woven into the spiritual and cultural fabric of their ancestors. Revered as a gift from the gods, it carries the mana (prestige) of the land and the strength of the rivers.
When worn close to the skin it absorbs your wairua (spirit); over time its lustre deepens along with the bond between wearer and stone. Pounamu is a gift from the heart and as such should be worn or displayed with respect and pride.
Comes with an adjustable cord and a jute drawstring bag.
This will be the exact piece you will receive in the photos, there may be a slight degree of colour variation based on different computer or mobile phone screen resolutions that you are viewing from.
