Inanga Pounamu Hei Matau Pendant Large

Carved by Alex Sands Carving Studio, this one-off large Toki pendant is crafted from Inanga pounamu, renowned for its soft blue-green hues, integrating with deeper tones. When the light moves across the surface, the stone reveals a gentle chatoyancy, giving the piece depth and living presence. Dark hues are threaded through the Hei Matau - adding character and individuality, with no two angles ever quite the same.

Symbolising a deep connection to the sea, the Hei Matau is worn for protection and good fortune, offering strength and safe passage. Its wearer is seen as a provider and protector, embodying the determination that leads to success in life. Paired with an adjustable, handwoven black cord for a comfortable fit, it comes in an eco-friendly box complete with cards detailing its meaning and care.
