Hand-Carved Nephrite Jade Fish Hook Necklace – Hei Matau Symbol of Strength, Prosperity & Safe Travels
Honor tradition and the power of the ocean with this hand-carved Nephrite Jade Fish Hook Necklace, a meaningful and wearable piece of cultural art. Crafted from genuine, high-quality Nephrite — the original stone known historically as jade — this pendant embodies natural strength, timeless beauty, and spiritual symbolism deeply rooted in Maori heritage.
The iconic fish hook, or hei matau, design is more than a captivating form. It represents good luck, prosperity, and protection during travel, especially by sea. Traditionally worn by ocean voyagers, fishermen, and wayfarers, this symbol remains a powerful token of abundance, safe passage, and guidance, making it an ideal gift for ocean lovers, adventurers, or those starting a new life journey.
Each necklace features a hand-carved jade pendant, shaped with care to preserve the natural variations and subtle patterns of authentic Nephrite. Measuring approximately 2 inches (50mm / 5.0 cm) in length, this pendant is a balanced size — bold enough to make a statement, yet understated enough for daily wear.
The adjustable hand-braided cord with sliding slip knots ensures a custom fit for any wearer or neckline. Whether worn close to the collarbone or at a longer drop, the one-size-fits-all design offers comfort and versatility. Upon request, a fixed-length cord with toggle-and-loop closure can be provided for a more traditional look.
As with all natural jade, expect some variations in color and pattern — each piece is unique and carries its own energy. Nephrite jade is believed to have protective and healing properties, making it more than just a beautiful adornment — it's a meaningful talisman.
Your jade fish hook necklace arrives in a soft gift pouch, ready to present for birthdays, anniversaries, or special occasions. Each necklace includes a meaning card that explains the cultural significance of the hei matau, making it an inspiring gift for anyone with a love for the ocean, tradition, and symbolism.
