New Zealand Pounamu Roimata Pendant

This is a rare pounamu Roimata(Tear drop) made of Douglas creek Pounamu.

Characterized by its tear-drop shape, the Roimata is a symbol that speaks to the depths of human emotion and the enduring connection between nature and spirituality. Just as nature finds balance in its cycles, the Roimata is thought to restore balance and well-being to those who wear it.

Over time absorb the wearers oils binding your connection with the stone forever meaning it can be passed down for generations, these stones very durable and have been around for millions of years.

Pounamu is specifically special to the people of New Zealand and is said to contain mana.
I always carve pounamu in a way that embraces its unique wairua.
