Flowing through each greenstone is a story, of our culture, our whānau, our people.

Symbol of Protection & Safe Passage

Whale Tail Pendant – Guardians of the Deep

Carved in pounamu, each Whale Tail honours the whale as kaitiaki (guardian) of te moana (ocean). Its sweeping form embodies power and wisdom, a touchstone for steady guidance across vast waters. Worn close to the heart, it carries enduring strength and protective mana, guiding the wearer safely through life’s changing tides.
