Description

This Pounamu Toki is 65mm long and carved in a narrow, refined form, closer to a file or chisel than a broad blade. That shape is deliberate. It speaks to focus, accuracy, and the steady work of shaping something well over time. This is a toki about purpose rather than force.

The Pounamu has a soft, light green tone with a calm, understated presence. Its form balances gentle curves with clean, straight bevels, giving the piece a sense of control and intention. The embedded single hole at the top allows the cord to sit neatly and keeps the overall profile clean and uncluttered.

Traditionally, the toki symbolises strength, determination, and skill. In this narrower form, that meaning is refined further into clarity of direction and disciplined effort. Whāinga means purpose or aim, and this taonga reflects the idea of knowing where you are headed and committing to that path with care and persistence.
