JUNGLE

JUNGLE - Hand carved Jade Toki pendant

Outstanding New Zealand Jade Art, made to Wear!

JUNGLE is hand carved from New Zealand Pounamu and is an absolute beauty. The colours are a reflection of the bush that lines the river this stone may very well have come from! Wonderful dark green mottled with paler mineral inclusions - pounamu pure!

The design and colours are best seen in the brief video we have taken of the piece revolving.

JUNGLE is suspended from a 3-plait silver/brown/charcoal adjustable cord and has a traditional charcoal lashing.

The toki, or adze, is a symbol of strength. The adze was a key survival tool, so the owner of a good one was believed to be strong and powerful. They were used to carve ocean-going waka (sea canoes) and to build central meeting houses so they played a central role in traditional life of māori.

The toki is traditionally worn for strength and courage - to assist through life's challenges.

JUNGLE is packaged in a woven kete pouch.

We also include one of our 'Kia Ora' cards, which explains the meaning behind the Toki design.

Delivery with Express Courier is included in the price.
