Porohita Koura Kahurangi- Gold Greenstone Pendant

Sands Jewellery House

Porohita (circle) symbolise the completion of cycles, a concept reflected in the celestial dance of Tama-nui-te-rā and Hina-te-marama, the sun and the moon. These circular movements across the sky serve as a powerful reminder of the cyclical nature of life. Giving a porohita as a gift expresses a deep desire to have that person at the center of one's world.

This piece was carved by Samuel Potter from kahurangi  pounamu sourced from Marsden of Te Wai Pounamu, Aotearoa, a 9ct gold and sterling silver on a gold plated stg chain by John Mayo. It measures 25mm by 20mm, has a glossy finish.
