These earrings feature 2cm Kōpae (round-shaped) pieces of Nz pounamu. The 2cm size gives them a delicate yet noticeable presence, perfect for adding a touch of elegance without being too bold. The Kōpae cut emphasizes the smooth, polished surface of the pounamu, highlighting its natural beauty and rich green tones. Paired with the stainless steel hooks, these earrings offer a balance of traditional Māori artistry and modern design.

In Māori culture, Kōpae refers to a circular shape, often symbolizing the continuity of life, unity, and wholeness. The round shape can also represent the moon, cycles, and the connections between past, present, and future. Wearing Kōpae jewelry carries a sense of harmony and timelessness, making these earrings both beautiful and meaningful.
