The Oval Kawakawa Pounamu Ring Size 9 or R 1/2
The Oval Kawakawa Pounamu Ring Size 9 or R 1/2.
Handmade by me in Te Whanganui-a-Tara (Wellington), this is set on a solid sterling silver patterned band with koru shapes and flowers and fine silver bezel. The back plate is made from a recycled sterling silver serviette holder with a cool pattern. The Oval Kawakawa Pounamu (Nephrite/Jade) stone is a beautiful deep green with black flecks through the stone. It is 17mm long x 10mm wide.
Pounamu or Greenstone (Nephrite/Jade) is regarded as a stone sacred to the gods by Māori of Aotearoa/New Zealand. Its Tāonga (meaning treasured) is said to increase in Mana (prestige) as it is passed on through generations.
More than just a beautiful art form, pounamu can represent ancestors, connection with the natural world, or attributes such as strength, prosperity, love, and harmony.
Pounamu is so durable, which I love. Whilst it is a hard stone to shape and polish it will last a life time. To polish you just use your own oils from your skin, or I like to put a little bit of Kawakawa Balm on it to make it shine, made by my Aunty from Old School Soap, Carterton. www.oldschoolsoap.co.nz
