Toki Raukaraka Small Pounamu Pendant, Tan Binding

Carved from Raukaraka pounamu by Ironpan, a mother-and-son carving duo based on the West Coast. A one-off size small Toki, its light green tones carrying a brassy gold vein through the stone.

The Toki takes the form of the traditional adze, worn as a mark of strength, determination and courage, carrying the mana of its wearer. Once an essential tool for Māori and traditionally worn by rangatira as a sign of power and wisdom, it endures as a symbol of resilience in the face of adversity.

Finished on an adjustable tan cord and presented in an eco-friendly box, accompanied by cards detailing its meaning and care, a truly cherished taonga.
