Maori pendant Koru spiral with garnish in pouch

Size of the nephrite pendant approx. 3.5 cm; supplied with black fabric strap and informative pouch insert.

The nephrite jade for this Maori pendant comes from Canada and is particularly hard and durable. This makes it possible to cut even unusual and delicate shapes such as these pendants with Maori spirals. The shapes were created from the rich treasure trove of symbols of the Maori, the indigenous people of New Zealand. The spiral shape "Koru" in particular stands for eternity. In the Maori language, "Koru" stands for a fern that has not yet unfurled.

Nefrit is also known as New Zealand jade or Maori jade.
