Embrace your wild side with our EARTH TOKI! Crafted with a deep green stone, this lovely necklace will have you feeling like a nature spirit. Grounded and close to the the earth. Slip it over your head and get ready to make and have some adventures!
EARTH TOKI is carved from a lovely piece of New Zealand Jade, locally called pounamu. This is a lovely, smaller piece that can be worn and enjoyed by anyone.
EARTH TOKI is suspended from a fine 4-plait black cord which can be adjusted with a couple of slip knots.
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.
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.
