This beautiful Breastplate featuring a cut out Koru shape has been hand carved from New Zealand pounamu (greenston/jade) by carver Ric Moor.
The koru is the artistic depiction of the unfurling New Zealand fern frond and is a symbol of new beginnings, growth, new life, harmony, peace and tranquillity
Pounamu is the Māori name for greenstone or nephrite jade which is only found in the South Island. It is an extremely tough material.
Ric was born in the Bay of Islands where he spent much of his youth carving bone, stone and working with silver but now lives on the West Coast of the South Island. He has been carving for many years and loves working with pounamu because of its permanence and cultural significance.
