This Large Lashed Toki is carved from NZ Marsden Pounamu & comes with a fully adjustable blackwaxed cord & completed with a matt finish.
Carved from NZ Marsden Pounamu this type of stone generally comes from an area outside Greymouth on the West Coast of New Zealand’s South Island. It can also come in a type called ‘flower jade’ – this is generally the part of the stone closest to the outside that is showing the greatest degree of inclusion and oxidation. This results in gorgeous colors – golds, reddish browns and a wide array of greens
This Toki (Adze) was an important Maori implement. In bone or stone, it was traditionally worn by Maori elders, as it represented power, wisdom, authority, strength, control, determination and focus.
