All Pounamu is sacred and highly valued by Ngāi Tahu, the most southern tribe of Aotearoa, New Zealand. Carving this sacred stone has been a cornerstone of our culture for hundreds of years and we are honoured that you have chosen to adorn yourself with this most sacred gift.

Traditionally, mere were reserved for warriors of distinguished mana and powers. Today, mere are gifts or taonga of high meaning and regard.
