Whanaunga is a set of two taonga — a Toki and a Roimata — carved from the same piece of deep green serpentine Pounamu from the Nelson area. Each is 60mm long, with a black lashing. Their shared origin symbolises enduring connection — two pieces that were one for countless years, now carrying that bond into the lives of those who wear them.
This unique whatuaho (greywacke) pendant, crafted from a West Coast beach pebble, showcases the natural beauty of the stone. Measuring 6cm long, it features a tan lashing with a ringbolt lashing style using half hitches across three holes at the top.

Roimata Arataki means guiding tear. The name was chosen to reflect the traditional meaning of the roimata—grief, loss, and emotional release—combined with the qualities of the manu, which represents guidance, awareness, and direction. This taonga is a long roimata carved as a stylised manu form, measuring 95mm in length. The eye-like opening at the top narrows into a fine, beak-like point, giving the piece a sense of movement and intent. A white rind at the tip reads like a tail feather, adding contrast and reinforcing the manu form. Carved from translucent serpentine Bowenite Pounamu from the Tasman area, the stone appears deep green in natural light and reveals its inner depth when held to the sun.
