This stunning Toki Pounamu (greenstone) pendant has been carved by Kerry Thompson (Ngati Paoa) and Amanda Thompson (Nga Puhi).

The Hei Toki Blade is a culturally significant symbol within the Māori culture, representing courage and strength, particularly in times of difficulty. These blades were carved to be used as chisel tools for the practice of Whakairo (traditional wood carving), to craft Marae (meeting houses) and Waka (canoes). Hei Toki pendants were also worn by Māori elders to symbolise power, wisdom and authority.

It comes on a beige braided cord, with a loop and carved greenstone toggle clasp.
