Manaia Matau Large Pounamu Pendant
This rare and unique Manaia Matau was carved from Raukaraka Pounamu on the West Coast of New Zealand. Showcasing striking golden-yellow and green hues, the natural matte finish accentuates the natural beauty and individuality of this treasured stone.
A powerful taonga, the Manaia Matau combines two deeply significant symbols into a single carving. The Manaia is regarded as a spiritual guardian and messenger between realms, offering protection, guidance, and strength. The Matau symbolises abundance and safe passage over water.
Together, the Manaia Matau represents spiritual protection, prosperity, and safe travel through life's many journeys. It serves as a meaningful reminder of resilience, guidance, and connection to both the natural and spiritual worlds.
Completed with an adjustable brown handwoven cord and presented in a premium eco-friendly box with meaning and care cards, this is a taonga to be treasured for generations.
