Along the maunga – flowing whakakai

We love to create pounamu jewellery that honours the taonga whilst also being jewellery you will want to wear to any event and that express your individual style.  And so we bring you our line of fun, funky, stylish whakakai, so you can change up your accessories and express your unique self.

Imagine you’re standing on a high place, looking  across the maunga to the moana.  Can you see the layers of maunga, deepening in colour as they go?  Thats what these whakakai represent.  Your maunga. The majestic maunga of Aotearoa as the march along the whenua. Each piece made from a different Tangiwai.

Thee whakakai tinkle in your ears as you go. I absolutely love these earrings, They are fun to wear and make me feel so stylish and absolutely unique.

Tim spends many hours carefully carving down our earrings so they are slim, light weight and easy to wear all day.  Slim pounamu also lets the light play through them.  Take a look at the photos, you can see through the stone!

These whakakai will look great for a night out with the girls, in the office or at school pick up. Pounamu for everyday,  to keep you grounded and feeling fun.
