Home, New Zealand Kiwi Greenstone Pattern Watch

The word "HOME" with the letter O replaced by a piece of shaped green jade. The lettering of the word "Home" is in a dark green colour, similar to that of greenstone pounamu. The Greenstone Pounamu Pikorua Twist is significant in Aotearoa New Zealand. The shape has a special meaning in NZ, in the Māori and Kiwi culture, representing the intertwining and connecting of friends, lovers, family, cultures, lives, and whānau. Pounamu is only found in the South Island New Zealand, Te Waipounamu Aotearoa, and customarily is given as a gift to another. In this piece home is a safe place, a place of sanctuary, a place of community with friends and family, a place of love, a place for finding solace, a place for celebrating life moments.
