The Toki or Adze is one of the most powerful traditional Māori symbols, representing strength, courage, power and determination.

Koru represents new life or beginning, growth, harmony and peace.

This authentic New Zealand greenstone (pounamu) pendant is carved in the classic Toki shape and finished in a gloss texture, giving it a natural and understated elegance.

Traditionally worn by leaders and warriors, the Toki symbolises resilience and inner strength. Today, it makes a meaningful gift for someone starting a new journey, overcoming challenges, or celebrating personal growth.

Each piece is carved from genuine New Zealand pounamu, meaning no two pendants are ever the same. Variations in colour, depth and natural markings are part of the stone’s unique character.

Pounamu, or New Zealand Jade, is a majestic stone sourced from the coastal regions, riverbeds, and Glaciers of Aotearoa (New Zealand). Traditionally utilised by Maori tribes, the stone was, at that time, seen as the strongest substance known to man.

Pounamu was sought for its robustness when used as a tool for hunting, fishing and fighting. For spiritual practice, the stones ethereal qualities and deep green colour were admired, also now, in our contemporary world.

It is a popular belief that Pounamu contains something more than rock, and when touched, this is noticed, whether this something is metaphysical or otherwise. Pounamu was formed into jewellery, heirlooms and spiritual symbols by the tribes most highly placed individuals, among the chiefs: the carvers. Employing sandstone, bark, and black obsidian, these masters of the elements spent weeks, months, even years, to gratify the best outcome for a piece of Pounamu.

A timeless Kiwiana treasure – designed to be worn close to the heart.
