The koru spiral represents new life, growth, and harmony in Māori tradition. This pendant is hand-carved from genuine jade — a stone that carries meaning as deep as its color.
This one-of-a-kind pendant features Wyoming nephrite jade hand-carved into an elegant koru design by a New Hampshire artist. The natural stone's rich green tones showcase the artisan's skilled craftsmanship, while the adjustable waxed polyester cord ensures a comfortable fit for any wearer. A distinctive piece that celebrates both the beauty of raw materials and the artistry of handmade jewelry. Jade measures 1" in diameter
