Toki Silver Pendant – Worth and Douglas
Meaningful and Beautiful
This fine silver pendant weaves together elements of Maori culture for a piece of unique, beautiful and modern jewelry. This piece, Toki, is in the shape of an Adze Blade which features a cut-out a Koru design.
Based on the unfurling fern frond, the Koru is one of the most important and widely recognized symbols in New Zealand. It is a emblem of creation and of new life. The circular shape references perpetual motion, while the inner point represents a return to a point of origin. The Koru is recognized worldwide as a symbol of peace.
In Maori Toki means an Adze Blade. In traditional Maori culture, an adze might be more than simply a tool for dressing wood: adzes could be attributed with magic or supernatural powers. While the shaft of an adze would be buried with its owner, the blade – the Toki – would be passed down through the whanau or family, and the hapu or subtribe, through many generations.
Toki is understated and elegant enough to look great when worn every day, yet special enough for special occasions. Appropriate for both men and women, this silver Toki Pendant is more than just beautiful. It’s filled with meaning, so it’s sure to become a piece which you’ll treasure.
Dimensions: ‘Toki’ measures 25mm across the base, the widest part, and is 37mm long. The leather cord is 335mm long; the silver chain is 240mm long
