Pounamu hei matau (fish hook) — strength, prosperity, good luck and safe travel over water.
Jade (pounamu) is a precious stone in Māori history and thus has a long-standing tradition of being gifted to others. Throughout history it has been used to seal bonds — whether for friendship, relationships, peace, or to show gratitude and thanks.
