Pounamu Porohita - Koru

Koru, the quintessential Māori pattern, represents growth, transformation, potential, and peace. Taken from the fern frond found throughout the forests of Aotearoa, koru represent the growth and transformation, the potential and peace found in the whenua (land). They are gifts of love and friendship.

This koru was carved by Yuki Tanaka from kawakawa pounamu sourced from Marsden of Te Wai Pounamu, Aotearoa. It measures 62mm in diameter, has a semi-gloss finish, and is bound with an adjustable hand-braided cord.
