The Jade Kerry has used for this toki is exquisite - a gorgeous pale, striated Inanga Jade. Beautiful stone with a lovely chatoyance* utilised masterfully.
EVERGREEN is a large, Toki, hand carved and polished to a low sheen, a finish that really promotes the jade's colours and structure. Carved with Kerry's exceptional attention to detail, this is a beautiful, unique toki.
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 ....and this is a good one!
Traditionally, the toki is worn to provide strength and courage to assist through life's challenges.
We provide this beautiful piece on an adjustable length cord and lovingly packaged in a woven kete pouch.
We include our 'Kia Ora' card explaining the meaning behind the Toki design.
Shipping is included in the price.
