How to Choose the Right Pounamu Carving
In Māori culture, each Pounamu carving carries its own story.
Toki (Adze) symbolises strength.
Koru (Spiral) stands for new beginnings.
Manaia offers spiritual protection.
Hei Matau (Fish Hook) represents safe travel and wealth.
Twist (Pikorua) means friendship and love.
Choose a carving that aligns with your journey. Pounamu stones range from dark to pale green. Some people love deep green, others prefer unique patterns. Trust your feelings—the right one will find you.
