This matching pair of Roimata has been carved from the same piece of bright green Kahurangi Pounamu, creating a strong visual and symbolic connection between the two taonga. A vivid dark inclusion runs through both pieces, naturally linking them together and reflecting relationships such as tuakana-teina, parent and child, or close whānau bonds. The larger Roimata measures 80mm and the smaller 45mm, both finished with black three-hole ring bolt lashings.
Kōtuitui speaks to connection that remains strong even through separation. Carved from the same piece of Kawakawa Pounamu, this matching Toki and Roimata symbolise two people whose lives, histories, or relationships remain interwoven no matter where life takes them. Though the stone has been divided into two taonga, both pieces still carry the same shared origin and journey within them.
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.
Te Ara me te Manawa brings together two taonga carved from the same remarkable piece of Whakatū pounamu. The hei toki represents strength, determination and the courage to shape your own path, while the roimata speaks of compassion, healing and emotional resilience. Together they symbolise walking through life with both strength and heart.
The pounamu is a striking pale green with dramatic dark brown dendritic inclusions and warm earthy tones flowing through the stone, creating a pattern that is completely unique. Both taonga measure 75 mm in length and are suspended on black cords, remaining forever connected through the stone they were carved from.
Te Here o te Whenua speaks of the bonds that connect us to one another and to the land beneath our feet. This matching set includes a 70mm Toki and an 80mm Kōuma carved from the same piece of Pounamu from the Whakatū region. The stone displays striking blue tones alongside earthy green rind from the outer edge of the original boulder. Finished with black lashings, the pair remains connected through the stone from which they came.
Te Toka Pūmau is a connected set of taonga carved from a single cobble of Inanga Pounamu. The display stone forms the foundation of the set, while the Roimata and Toki were carved from the piece removed to create its base, permanently linking all three pieces through the same whakapapa of stone.
The display piece naturally resembles either a fern frond or a mountain range rising upward from the whenua. Rather than being shaped into that form, the natural contours of the cobble revealed it once the front face was polished. The Roimata and Toki both retain the natural rind on their backs, preserving the original surface of the stone while contrasting against the polished carved fronts. Together, the set represents grounding, connection, strength, and shared origins.
Te Tūhononga, meaning “The Connection”, is a matching pair of hand-carved Pounamu taonga made from Tākiri Pounamu from Douglas Creek. The set includes a 70 mm Kōuma and a 70 mm Hei Toki, each suspended on a black cord, with a five-hole ring-bolt lashing on the Kōuma and a traditional toki lashing on the Hei Toki.
Carved from the same piece of stone, these taonga represent the connection between people. The Kōuma symbolises abundance and the sharing of life’s gifts, while the Hei Toki represents strength, courage, and determination.
