This unique Skull carving was believed by ancient cultures such as the Egyptians and Mayans to increase power and have an affect on healing and human consciousness. Crafted from a beautiful piece of Inanga Greenstone from the Arahura River, this is truly an exquisite sculpture.
Sculpture -Inanga- 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.
