The Porowhita embodies the circle of life, representing balance, unity, and connection to all living things. Its form speaks to the natural rhythms of the earth and the unbroken flow between people, land, and spirit.
Hand-carved from genuine New Zealand pounamu, each pendant reveals its own character through variations in tone and pattern. Worn close to the heart, it serves as a reminder of wholeness and harmony in every stage of life.
Crafted at Sands Carving Studio, a collective of master carvers including Alex Sands, Yuki Tanaka, Samuel Potter, Michael Matchitt, John Mayo, Jeremy Walsh and Alicia Taylor. United in their passion for pounamu, they combine Māori heritage, exceptional craftsmanship and contemporary design to create taonga (treasures) that honour the land and culture of Aotearoa.
