About This Pounamu Pendant Carved from authentic New Zealand pounamu (greenstone) sourced from the South Island, this wave heart pendant brings together two of the most beloved symbols in greenstone jewellery. The design honours both the heart — a universal symbol of love and connection — and the ocean wave, representing life's journey and the enduring bond between people and the sea. Because pounamu is a natural stone, every pendant has its own unique colour, tone and markings. No two pieces are ever the same. Hand-carved from authentic New Zealand pounamu Unique natural colours and markings 35mm — ideal for everyday wear Combines heart and wave symbolism Meaning of the Wave Heart The wave heart pendant is a uniquely powerful symbol — one that speaks to the depth of human connection and the strength it takes to love and be loved through all of life's changes. The heart has long represented love, warmth, and the bonds we share with those closest to us. In pounamu, it carries an added weight — a gift of greenstone is a gift of yourself, a lasting token of care and connection. The wave speaks to life's journey — its rhythm, its flow, and its inevitable changes. In Māori tradition, the ocean is a place of both challenge and navigation, a force that connects rather than divides. Waves remind us that even in difficulty, there is movement, momentum, and the promise of calmer waters ahead. Together, the wave and heart create a symbol of: Love — deep, enduring, and unconditional Connection — to people, to place, to the ocean Family — the bonds that hold us through every season Friendship — the kind that weathers every storm Emotional strength — the courage to feel deeply and keep going Life's journey — embracing change with grace and resilience The ocean — honouring the sea that shaped Aotearoa and its people For anyone who has ever found strength in the sea, or in the people they love, this pendant carries that meaning with them.
