Pounamu Kiwi Pendant

$65.00 NZD

The heart of the Aroha collection is inspired by love. The feeling that is generated from generosity. It's a combination of colour, textures and indigenous forms that help to craft this distinctive jewellery range. It's about enjoying the simple things in life, creating forms that can be identified as a message of love.

The Kiwi is a flightless nocturnal bird native to New Zealand and has become the national symbol for New Zealand. It is known for its long peak, hair-like feathers and retiring nature. Māori traditionally believe Kiwi to be under the protection of Tane Mahuta, god of the forest. Kiwi feathers are particularly important to the Māori for their use in ceremonial cloaks.
