Description
These sterling silver cufflinks are handcrafted using deep green Kawakawa Pounamu from Aotearoa. Each stone has been shaped into a softly rounded rectangular cabochon, with smooth curves and softened edges that give the pair a more organic and flowing appearance compared to sharper geometric designs. The Pounamu measures approximately 10mm long by 7mm wide, creating a balanced size that feels refined and understated when worn with formal clothing.
Kawakawa Pounamu is valued for its rich green tones and depth of colour. Under different lighting, the stone reveals darker forest greens alongside lighter translucent areas, giving the cufflinks movement and character without being overly bold. The contrast between the polished Pounamu and sterling silver creates a clean and timeless finish.
Each cufflink is built using a hidden pin system extending up into the Pounamu itself, providing a strong and durable connection between the stone and silver fitting while keeping the front appearance seamless.
Cufflinks have long been associated with formal occasions and important events, and incorporating Pounamu into them creates a meaningful connection to Aotearoa within that setting. Whether worn for weddings, celebrations, professional wear, or gifted as a special taonga, these cufflinks carry both elegance and significance in a subtle and wearable form.
