New Zealand Pounamu Hā Pendant

New Zealand Pounamu Hā Pendant

Carved from a serene blend of light and deep green Whakatū pounamu, this Hā pendant embodies the breath of life, calm, grounding, and ever-flowing.

The soft, milky tones carry a quiet energy, while the darker green vein sweeps gently through the stone like air moving through still water, a natural reminder to breathe, to pause, and to move with presence.

In te reo Māori, Hā means breath, the essence that connects all living things. The circular form of this design reflects that continuous rhythm, a symbol of balance and renewal that moves in harmony with the wearer.

A piece for those who seek simplicity, grounding, and calm strength, Hā is a reminder that every breath holds connection and life.

Over time, the stone will absorb the wearer’s natural oils, binding your connection to it and allowing it to be passed down through generations. Pounamu is incredibly durable and has existed for millions of years, a true taonga.

This pendant is strung on an adjustable 3 plait olive polyester cord.

Size: 22mm
