GLEEFUL
- Small, Hand Carved, New Zealand Marsden Jade Hook Pendant
This hei-matau is carved from New Zealand jade - and what a wonderful piece of stone this is! A gorgeous green Pounamu that is quite dark when held against the skin, but lustrous and when touched with light.
Handcrafted by an expert carver, this unique jade piece offers a stunning reminder of heritage. Show off your unique sense of style by wearing this beautiful Matau with pride.
The very best way to appreciate this work (apart from holding it in your hands) is to watch the brief video we have taken of it slowly revolving. It really is a beauty! The carved form is slender and wonderfully balanced - Ric has used the perfect piece of stone for the design and he has executed the carving beautifully.
The hook: the wearer of a Hei-Matau is seen as a provider and protector who is strong willed and determined to succeed in life - what a lovely sentiment to gift to someone important to you.
lovingly packaged in a woven kete pouch and provided with a four plait brown coloured adjustable cord.
Also included, our 'Kia Ora' card, which explains the meaning behind the hook design.
Shipping is included in the price.
