There are a number of popular jewelry designs from New Zealand jewelry designers in modern and traditional styles which form very wearable art.
Traditional Maori designs include the Tiki design, one which is sacred to New Zealand Maori people and represents the first man and the strong links with the sea. The Koru style is a circular design which represents peace, tranquility, and a strong sense of regrowth and new beginnings. The Hei Matau (fish hook) is another traditional design indicating good luck, strength, prosperity, and abundance in the wearer. These pieces of mens jewelry were once also used historically for practical purposes in fishing. The intricate Manaia design of Aotearoa jewellery is thought to carry great spiritual significance and is regarded as a guardian against evil, to defend the wearer from bad spiritual energy at all times.
In addition, our hand-crafted jewelry range includes a number of necklace designs of modern style, including jewelry based on dolphin, turtle and tortoise designs, Orca and whale tail necklaces, and pendants and good luck charms in unique, one-off styles which are beautiful New-Zealand-made gifts.
