Hand Carved Buffalo Bone Koru Necklace – Maori New Beginnings

Talofa! Aloha and Hafa Adai! Or Hello- thanks for checking out my Polynesian & Micronesian Jewelry Collection. This piece is 💯 Hand Carved Solid Buffalo Bone. The necklace is 34” in length, however it can be adjusted to wear as a surfer choker or mid length boho style. The koru (Māori for ‘”loop or coil”’) is a spiral shape based on the appearance of a new unfurling silver fern frond. It is an integral symbol in Māori art, carving and tattooing, where it symbolizes new life, growth, strength and peace. Its shape “conveys the idea of perpetual movement,” while the inner coil “suggests returning to the point of origin”
