Marsden Flower (or Putiputi) Pounamu ring ~ Wha, meaning 4, due to the stone having 4 edges.
The Pounamu has been set in sterling silver, which has been oxidised (darkened) and then sanded to reveal the silver on the higher points.
The back of the ring has been left open so that the Pounamu can rest against your finger.
Size 10 or T/U. Ring can be sized up to a 11 or V/W free of charge. Simply leave a note at checkout for me.
Marsden Flower Pounamu is from the Marsden, West Coast area. This stone is a highly translucent, light-ish green shade. It is one of the rarest varieties, held in high esteem by Māori. The yellowish clouds throughout are mesmerizing.
Handcrafted by Opal Downes, Ngā Rauru/Ngāti Kahungunu in Whanganui, Aotearoa, New Zealand.
