HOLD ME

HOLD ME - Hand crafted from a gorgeous piece of New Zealand greenstone. 

This exquisite Manaia Toki pendant is a perfect blend of charisma and gentle elegance, brought to life by the skilled hands of Kyohei Noguchi. Its graceful curves and tactile surface invite touch, creating an experience, a connection to something deeper.

The Manaia, a guardian figure with its spiritual symbolism, combines beautifully with the Toki, a shape that signifies strength and purpose. Together, they form a pendant that radiates balance and quiet power. Whether worn as a personal talisman or gifted as a meaningful treasure, this pendant is a timeless symbol of protection and inspiration.

The perfect pendant if you are looking for something carved from a rare and beautiful jade.

The Manaia: a mythical being believed to be the invisible light, or aura, surrounding a person. They represent spiritual power and are believed to be the guide that leads the spirits to heaven. They are worn to guide and protect.

The toki, or adze, is a symbol of strength. The adze was a key survival tool, so the owner of a good one was believed to be strong and powerful. They were used to carve ocean-going waka (sea canoes) and to build central meeting houses so they played a central role in traditional life of māori.

The toki is traditionally worn for strength and courage - to assist through life's challenges.

HOLD ME is lovingly packaged in a woven kete pouch and provided with an adjustable brown cord.

We also include our 'Kia Ora' cards, which explain the meaning behind the Manaia and Toki design.
