Toki Style

A beautiful piece of stone that we have not found since 2017, the photographs just cannot capture her beauty.

Hand-carved from Douglas Creek Pounamu

- a South Westland Serpentinite from deep in the Haast mountains.

She has magnificent translucent glassy green translucent tones set in a smoky base stone with shimmers of gold pyrite inclusions, you can see the depth and layers when you stare into the stone.

Our Breast plate style symbolises protection.

Findings/Features:

• Size:

• -  8.5 x 4cm

About Serpentinite:

A rich and varied stone, serpentinite is one of three pounamu stones used in traditional carving, and one of the most recognisable. A metamorphic stone formed from antigorite, lizardite and chrysotile, this wide mix of minerals produce a stone of immense complexity, and individual pieces can contain colours ranging from deep moss green to aquatic blue, with gold, orange, and brown highlights.

Healing Properties:

A healing stone, serpentinite replenishes and restores energies within the body and creates a protective field around its wearer. Sometimes porous, serpentinite can absorb oils from your skin and its colour may deepen over time - this should not be seen as a flaw but as part of the stone’s natural evolution with its wearer.
