Jade Rei Niho Pounamu #2360

A Rei Niho carries the spirit of strength, leadership, and deep connection. Traditionally worn by high rangatira (chiefs), this revered form was once carved from the rare teeth of the parāoa (sperm whale), a symbol of status, wisdom, and unwavering determination.

Whether chosen for yourself or gifted to a loved one, this Rei Niho serves as a powerful reminder of resilience, courage, and the path ahead. It holds the essence of those who have walked before us, their guidance woven into every curve, their wairua (spirit) ever-present.

Let this taonga be more than an adornment - let it be a quiet strength, a whisper of history, and a connection to something far greater than ourselves.

• Approximately 55 x 40 x 8 mm

Over time this Pounamu will absorb it's wearer's natural body oils, taking on qualities unique only to them.

May it's colours forever be a symbol of the wearers connection to our beautiful land & one day be a sacred heirloom they hand down to their future generations.
