Roimata Kōkopu with Sterling Silver Cap- Greenstone Teardrop Pendant
WS$ 791.00
The roimata embodies our emotions in times of joy, sadness, celebration and tribulation. Traditionally made from pounamu adzes or similar tools that were too worn down to be functional, they were gifted as a way of remembering the history and tūpuna (ancestors). They remind us of our humanity, and our ability to overcome adversity even when the path is spiritually difficult.
This roimata was carved by Ray Stokes from kōkopu pounamu sourced from Arahura of Te Wai Pounamu, Aotearoa. It measures 119mm by 16mm, has a glossy finish and is hung on a sterling silver chain.
