Inanga Porohita - Greenstone Disc Pendant Hooks & Manaia Worn on special occasionsPorohita (circle) symbolise the completion of cycles, a concept reflected in the celestial dance of Tama nui te r and Hina te marama, the sun and the moon. These circular movements across the sky serve as a powerful reminder of the cyclical nature of life. Giving a porohita as a gift expresses a deep desire to have that person at the center of one's world. This porohita was carved by Aaron Marshall from inanga pounamu sourced from Arahura of Te Wai
