A contemporary manaia carving made from a beautiful piece of West Coast jade of the highly prized inanga variety. 2 tone colouring giving both sides a different look and carving could be worn either way around.

Measures 68mm x 38mm x 8mm approximately. Suspended on an adjustable 3 plait cord. Hand sanded to a satin finish which will take on a natural polish over time from contact with the wearer.

Carved by myself of Rongomaiwahine and Ngati Kahungunu descent. Hand crafted here on the West Coast. I am a full-time jade carver and all purchases are greatly appreciated by my family and I.
