Kahotea Pounamu Ira
We are all inlove with the taonga arond here. Just look at those dendritic speckles. How stunning is that? Kahotea pounamu is streaked and speckled with white and is derived from the kupu Kaho, meaning light coloured tea(white or clear). This piece of the Kahotea kohatu carries these wonderful dendrites making it something quite unique. You can spend hours just looking at all the patterns and colours.
Ira are dots. Simple. However Ira doesn’t only mean dot, it also means your genes or life principal. Your ira is what links you to your whakapapa, to your tupuna. Your Ira is integral to who you came from and who you are today.
Every Ira dot is unique, just as your ira makes you unique. Gift one on its own or get yourself a pair so you can be connected by your Ira.
The Ira pendants are perfect for everyone. Small enough for tamariki and even pēpē to wear comfortably.
We’d love to see everyone wearing one and then we can all come together and CONNECT THE IRA.
The Story
We just love the universal significance of Ira so much that we wrote a blog about them. Pop on over here and read all about where the Ira come from and why we think they are so important for the world to enjoy. Let’s all connect the Ira and make one big beautiful picture together.
