NZ Greenstone Small Manaia Pendant (CA457) Hapopo Pounamu
Beautifully coloured Hapopo Pounamu. This Manaia is a lovely one that's been carved locally.
Measurements:
40 mm length
28 mm width
9 mm depth
A powerful protector, the Manaia flows between realms; with its head of a bird soaring to the heavens, its body of a man rooted in the present, and its tail of a fish diving into the depths of the unknown. This mystical being serves as a kaitiaki (guardian), guiding souls safely through life's journeys while maintaining balance between the physical and spiritual worlds. It is a talisman of strength, intuition, and divine connection.
The sacred stone of Aotearoa. Pounamu of this beautiful land encompasses nephrite jade, serpentine, and tangiwai (bowenite). To the Māori of New Zealand, Pounamu (greenstone) is more than just a stone, it is a taonga (treasure) woven into the spiritual and cultural fabric of their ancestors. Revered as a gift from the gods, it carries the mana (prestige) of the land and the strength of the rivers.
When worn close to the skin it absorbs your wairua (spirit); over time its lustre deepens along with the bond between wearer and stone. Pounamu is a gift from the heart and as such should be worn or displayed with respect and pride.
Comes with an adjustable cord and a jute drawstring bag.
This will be the exact piece you will receive in the photos, there may be a slight degree of colour variation based on different computer or mobile phone screen resolutions that you are viewing from.
