A wedge of treasure
NZ Greenstone is a hard, durable and highly valued nephrite jade found in the South Island of New Zealand. It is considered to be taonga (treasure) in Maori culture and is often presented as a special gift to visitors, for birthdays and to New Zealanders moving overseas.
The spiral is an intuitive symbol of our identity, and is as old as time. It is found in art, philosophy and religion, and in divination, magic, and the occult. It has existed in ancient art from all over the world, from Stone-Age Europe and the Near East to pre-dynastic Egypt, in Peru and China, as well as the Maori and Polynesian cultures in the Pacific.
Natural, exquisite and completely unique, this piece of modern jade jewellery will make a stunning gift!
Why is this NZ Greenstone wedge necklace so wonderful?
- Lovingly crafted by hand from me, for you
- Distinctive design, delightful detail and exceptional quality
- This long NZ Greenstone wedge necklace measures 7cm (2.75″) from top of pendant
- The trapezium-shaped greenstone pendant sits on a 51cm Sterling Silver box chain with lobster clasp
- The spiral symbolises the way of all things and a double spiral represents the balance between two opposing forces. It also symbolises spiritual awakening, and the concurrence of the physical world with the spiritual realm.
- This greenstone piece has tumbled though I have not polished it further, but left the natural and raw beauty of the greenstone to shine through
- The colour green represents abundance, renewal, growth and nature. It is a harmonising, balancing and calming colour.
- This necklace is completely unique and one-of-a-kind (i.e. there is only 1 available)
- For the eco-conscious: only 100% recycled .925 Sterling Silver wire used
- Comes lovingly and sustainably packaged with a free polish cloth to keep tarnish at bay
