Mere Pounamu Carving from Pounamu Queensland
This exquisite piece is carved by Dion from Totoweka Pounamu, taking its name from the Māori words toto (blood) and weka (the native New Zealand bush hen) as the markings resemble the bird's blood.
 
Measuring approximately 9cm x 3cm and strung on a black adjustable plaited necklace, this carving is both a work of art and a meaningful symbol of authority, mana, strength, and leadership. 
 
Each taonga is thoughtfully packaged in a black keepsake box, making it a perfect gift or a treasured addition to your collection.
