A stunning contemporary bird design from a wonderful piece of Inanga Pounamu. The colours and textures in this stone are so unique and beautifully placed. This will make an awesome gift.
Inanga
– This pounamu takes its name from a freshwater fish native to New Zealand. It is pale and often transparent, like the young of the Inanga fish. It is pearly white to grey green in colour, and ranges from translucent to quite opaque. It can change colour over time, developing a light olive tint as it ages and oxidises - Highly prized by the Māori and the desired material for making Mere and Patu.
