Named after my favourite star in Te Kāhui o te Matariki - also known as Sterope in the Pleiades star cluster.
Pōhutukawa is the star you can look upon this star in reflection and remembrance of loved ones who have passed.
The red gemstone is Hessonite Garnet - a very fitting gem for the Pōhutukawa.
The Pōhutukawa charm measures as 2.2cm in length, not including the jump ring.
The chain is divine quality - heavy and lush - with a length of 50cm.
Sterling silver chain and pendant.
Keen on your own Pōhutukawa?
This pendant can be made to order in your choice of metal (silver, or solid gold), and with your choice of gemstone. Reach out to me at opaldownesjewellery@hotmail.com if you would love your own Pōhutukawa whetū/star.
