Hei Matau Pounamu

Hei Matau Pounamu | Scott Parker

This beautifully balanced Hei Matau (fish hook) pendant is handcrafted by Scott Parker from authentic pounamu sourced from the Arahura River.

The stone features a stunning, mossy green character with deep natural speckles and inclusions, giving it a raw and earthy aesthetic. Its surface is polished to a soft, tactile finish that feels wonderful to the touch.

The Hei Matau is a powerful Māori symbol representing safe travel over water, as well as prosperity, abundance, and a deep respect for the sea. This particular carving is finished with a traditional black lash winding at the top and hangs from a durable, adjustable cord.

It is a meaningful piece of wearable art that connects the wearer to the natural heritage and spiritual strength of New Zealand.
