Dear friend, Kia Ora
This simple set of two carvings is named as one taonga called Tūhononga. This name means connection.
They are a combination of Douglas Creek pounamu and Mother of Pearl. This pair of carvings have been made from the same stone, and the inlays are from the same shell. These taonga are designed to interlock together and form a spiral. This spiral is reminiscent of a galaxy. A galaxy spans almost inconceivable distances and gives birth to numerous stars. Associated with this is great mystery. Therefore, within this imagery is a wonderful metaphor for great love. At another level, this spiral represents the eternal movements of life and depicts the dance of two becoming one.
Individually, each taonga forms a koru. The koru symbol is common in New Zealand and is inspired by the unfurling of the new fern fronds. Meanings associated with this are new growth, new beginnings and awakening.
