MANGROVE JACK - A traditional style hei-matau or hook pendant, hand carved in Red Jasper stone.
The jasper itself is the focal point. Deep carmine, terracotta, and brick-red hues swirl organically through the stone. The polished satin finish yields a velvety, tactile surface that subdues the stone's natural gloss. This controlled sheen diffuses light and beautifully accentuates the complex colours in this wonderful stone.
This is a unique, standout piece which we have bound with a Dusk Cord and Plum Binding.
In New Zealand Maori tradition the fish hook represents prosperity, abundance, strength and determination and is also worn to show a respect for the ocean. Wear this amulet for safety when travelling, particularly over water.
MANGROVE JACK is lovingly packaged in a woven kete pouch.
Please note - the photo shown in the hand is for size reference only.
We will also include one of our 'Kia Ora' cards, which explains the meaning behind the hook design.
