SKYGUIDE - Hand Carved in Guatemalan Jadeite with New Zealand Jade inlay.
Guardian Manaia Koru - this piece has a lovely symbolism combining two shapes that are important in our local culture: the manaia and the koru.
The birds head on this manaia symbolises your Guardian Spirit. Traditional belief is that it will guide you and keep you safe on your journey through life. It is a symbol of youth, new beginnings and prosperity.
The koru symbolises new life, the central spiral shape represents an unfolding silver fern frond - the beginning of its life. The circular movement towards an inner coil refers to ‘going back to the beginning’.
This is a fabulous pendant for someone setting out in life, taking on new challenges. These pieces feel absolutely beautiful in the hand.
The body of this piece is carved from Guatemalan Jadeite - it has been polished to a lovely glow. The eyes are New Zealand Jade - a beautiful contrast!
SKYGUIDE is provided with an adjustable cord and loving packaged in a woven kete pouch.
Also included, our 'Kia Ora' cards, which explains the meaning behind both the Koru and Manaia design.
Complimentary Delivery to you with Express Courier is included in the price.
