Each pendant begins its journey as a raw piece of New Zealand Pounamu, carefully selected for its quality and unique characteristics.
The process of tumbling involves placing the raw Pounamu in a tumbler with abrasive materials, such as sand or grit, and allowing it to tumble for an extended period. This method smooths out rough edges and creates a distinctive, textured finish that enhances the natural beauty of the stone.
As the Pounamu tumbles, it undergoes a transformation, revealing intricate patterns and colors that vary from piece to piece. The result is a one-of-a-kind pendant that captures the essence of Aotearoa’s rugged landscapes and rich cultural heritage.
Each step of the tumbling process is carried out with precision and care, ensuring that every pendant meets our exacting standards. The end result is a wearable work of art that pays homage to Māori tradition and the beauty of New Zealand’s native stone
