JF139 || Koru spiral hand-carved from Kawakawa Pounamu Nephrite Jade -  by Joe Foster

Pounamu, New Zealand nephrite jade, holds unique significance as a taonga (cultural treasure) for Māori, embodying mana and ancestral connection beyond the value of other jades. This specific piece is carved into a koru, the revered Māori symbol inspired by the unfurling fern frond, which inherently carries the stone's spiritual weight. Culturally, the koru shape powerfully signifies new beginnings, growth, and harmony, often being gifted to bless a fresh start or mark personal evolution. Therefore, this Pounamu koru is a profound, tangible link to Māori heritage that simultaneously serves as a personal blessing for an unfolding journey ahead.
