Brand New, Never Used Silver Maori-Designed Pendant. 100% .925 Solid Sterling Silver (Not Plated, Not Bonded, Not Filled) With Surface Oxidized Accents.<></>

- Symbolism: The Pendant's Overall Shape Represents "Unity". Koru: The Koru, Which is Often Used in Maori Art as a Symbol of Creation, is a Scroll Shape That is Linked to New Zealand Fern Plants; Specifically, the New Zealand Silver Fern. The Shoot of the Fern has a Curled-over Tip which Unfurls to Eventually Become a Fern Leaf. As it Reaches up Towards the Light, the New Fern Shoot Strives for Perfection to Encourage New Positive Beginnings. The Spiral Circular Shape Conveys the Geometry of Life Being a Sacred Creation and the Idea of Perpetual Movement. The Inward Coil Suggests a Return to the Point of Origin. The Koru therefore Symbolizes the Way in Which Life Both Changes and Stays the Same. The Koru is an Integral Symbol in Maori Carvings and Tattoos and the Shape is Often Carved Using Bone or Shells. Overall, the Koru Represents the Unfolding of New Life, New Beginnings, Growth, Strength, Peace and Movement that is Shared with the Another Person (Eternal Friendship). Everything is Reborn and Continues, a Renewal and Hope for the Future. Adze (An Ax-like Tool): Strength, Determination, Control, Focus, and Triumph Over Adversity.
