This Roimata pendant has been carved from New Zealand pounamu (greenstone/ jade) by Moreton carvers based in Hokitika, South Island.
Roimata translates to tears in Te reo Māori (Māori language).
The Roimata is a symbol of grief and sadness and is believed by some to reference the separation of Ranginui (Sky Father) and Papatūānuku (Earth Mother).
Rainfall is said to be the tears of Ranginui lamenting his separation from Papatūānuku but without the separation of Rangi and Papa humankind would not thrive.
The Roimata represents healing and strength and holds a deep connection to the whenua (land).
Pounamu is the Māori name for greenstone or nephrite jade which is only found in the South Island. It is an extremely tough material and is said to absorb the owners essential spirit, feeding it back to them and enhancing their strength.
