Hand-Carved Bone Honu Turtle Necklace – Māori Koru Spiral Pendant

Artfully combining the Polynesian Honu (Sea Turtle) with the traditional Māori Koru (Spiral), this hand-carved bone pendant celebrates a deep connection to both land and sea. In Pacific traditions, the Honu symbolizes longevity, endurance, safe ocean voyages, and good fortune, while the unfurling fern frond of the Koru represents personal growth, peace, and positive new beginnings.

Carved from solid, ethically sourced bovine bone, this statement piece features natural character and smooth, tactile contours designed for daily wear. It comes pre-strung on an earthy flax-tone cord with secure sliding knots, letting you wear it high as a choker or low as a relaxed chest piece.
