Australasian Koru Ammonite
Australasian Koru Ammonite
Hand-carved by Maddy, this exceptional disc pendant combines the striking depth of Australian Cowell Jade with a central New Zealand Pounamu insert, forming the heart of a flowing koru design. The koru, a symbol of growth and renewal, spirals outward with intricate details reminiscent of a fossilized ammonite, adding a touch of timeless natural beauty.
The Cowell Jade, sourced from South Australia's Eyre Peninsula, is renowned for its deep black tones and exceptional quality. With mining operations in the Cowell region now ceased, this rare and sought-after jade has become even more precious, making each piece truly special. The vibrant green of the Pounamu insert contrasts beautifully with the dark jade, while the ammonite-inspired engravings add depth and texture to the design.
Each pendant is carefully crafted by hand, showcasing the artistry of traditional carving techniques. This unique accessory highlights the natural beauty of these extraordinary stones while celebrating the connection between nature and craftsmanship.
