Kawakawa Pounamu Silver Ring
$440.00
A solid sterling silver ring set with a deep green Kawakawa Pounamu cabochon that I carved by hand. The band features a textured finish and a split design near the top, with a row of silver beads flowing across the surface. The contrast between the polished Pounamu and the raw silver texture gives this piece a timeless, natural character.
Description
This beautiful ring pairs solid sterling silver with a dark green cabochon of Kawakawa Pounamu that I carved by hand. The Pounamu is rich in colour, with subtle variations that make each piece unique. The sterling silver band is textured, with a split at the top where a line of raised silver beads crosses over, adding detail and movement to the design.
The smooth finish of the Pounamu sits in contrast to the rugged surface of the silver, symbolising balance between the natural and the refined. Kawakawa Pounamu is traditionally associated with strength and healing, making this a meaningful taonga to wear every day.
This ring is a one-of-a-kind piece that brings together the depth of Aotearoaâs stone with the enduring beauty of sterling silver.
