Hand-carved NZ Pounamu
Hassle-free returnsThe 'manu,' or bird, is a cherished motif in Māori artistry, representing freedom, perspective, and the connection between the earthly and spiritual realms. This pendant captures the essence of flight and aspiration, encouraging the wearer to soar to new heights while remaining grounded in their heritage. Carved from authentic New Zealand greenstone, or 'pounamu,' it embodies the mana (prestige) and strength inherent in this treasured stone.
