Tangiwai Curved Toki Necklace
60mm High
30mm Wide
13mm Deep
Once used as a tool by tangata whenua, the toki shape is now considered to symbolise strength, courage and determination. However, this said, it’s my belief that the wearer should cast their own intentions on the taonga based on their needs. All these treasures are a source of peace, mana and connection that uplift your mauri. They are also amazing sensory tools to feel or hold in tough times. This particular piece has been carved out of Tangiwai pounamu or bowenite, which translates as water of tears. The stone gets its name after a Māori legend of a grieving wahine whose tears were turned to stone.
All taonga I carve comes with a 100% organic cotton bag to keep it safe when not wearing.
*Note: This pounamu is authentic Aotearoa kōhatu sourced from the Nelson area .
