A striking, hand fabricated piece inspired by kowhaiwhai; the traditional Māori scroll work patterns found in rafters and carvings across Aotearoa.
This flared sterling silver band features an intricate hand cut koru design running the full circumference, oxidised to a rich black finish that makes the pattern pop against the silver. Set at the centre is a 3mm faceted aquamarine.
The koru, the spiral at the centre of the design, is one of the most recognised shapes in Māori art, based on the unfurling fern frond and long associated with new growth.
This piece is hand fabricated on the Taranaki coast.
Details:
Sterling silver, oxidised finish
Aquamarine, 3mm, faceted
Band width 9mm, thickness 2mm
Size M
