Much of Maori theology was based around a great respect for nature and in particular the sea as the Maori people had crossed the Pacific Ocean to find New Zealand (Aotearoa) in sailing canoes and based much of their lifestyle around the resources gained from fishing and agriculture. Legend has it that New Zealand was once a huge fish that was caught by the great mariner Maui using a line of woven plant fibre and a bone hook.
The spiral is a Koru, which is the fern frond as it opens bringing new life and purity to the world. It also represents peace, tranquility and spirituality along with a strong sense of regrowth or new beginnings. The Koru is also often associated with nurturing so is frequently used to represent the strength and purity of a loving relationship within a family. It speaks of a compassionate person who is wise and for whom the family and village are the key elements in their life.
It is also often used to symbolize inner strength and spirituality.
This piece is hand carved from Nephrite Jade.
