HOT ! Golden Pounamu Matau

Golden Pounamu Matau | Karaitiana Akroyd

This Golden Pounamu Matau by Karaitiana Akroyd is a stunning piece that captures the warmth and light often found in rare varieties of New Zealand jade.

The Matau (fish hook) shape is a deeply respected symbol of abundance, determination, and a strong spiritual connection to the moana.

This particular carving features a sharp, contemporary edge and a unique pointed barb, giving the traditional form a very purposeful and bold energy.

The stone itself has beautiful golden and olive hues with natural dark veining, making it look as though it has been pulled straight from the riverbed.

It is finished with a traditional dark brown lashed binding that adds a rugged, handmade feel to the polished stone.

Hook into a bit of good luck with this one-of-a-kind taonga.
