A beautifully hand-carved vintage Māori pounamu (New Zealand greenstone) pendant, sculpted in the classic mere (short club) form. This refined miniature interpretation captures the distinctive tapered blade and handle of the traditional weapon, complete with a suspension aperture for wear. The stone displays rich, deep green tones with natural marbling, creating a striking organic pattern unique to each face. A smooth, tactile polish enhances the depth and character of the material, giving the piece an understated yet highly appealing presence. The mere form is traditionally associated with strength, authority, and personal mana, lending this piece both visual impact and symbolic meaning.
