Whale tooth earrings - Aroha ake ake - Forever love
Dear friend, Kia Ora
These earrings are made from sperm whale tooth, therefore can only be sold in New Zealand. The fitting is 925 silver.
Ko te Korekore ka ahu mai ka Po-takiwa
From the absolute Nothingness begat the Night Ages
No Ka Po-takiwa ka ahu mai ka aokatoa
From the Night came all that can be seen in the Light
The tooth whakapapa’s to the Kaikorua region, located on the east coast of the South Island of New Zealand. It is a very precious material which is held in very high esteem in Aotearoa. It is a great honour and mana to possess such taonga.
They have been formally blessed as it is traditional in New Zealand to bless carvings before being adorned. These earrings have been named Aroha ake ake which means forever love.
The spiral pattern symbolises the outpouring of the Wairua of the Atua who created all life. (From the absolute Nothingness begat the Night Ages).
As mentioned, I have used high-quality fittings of 925 Silver. Sterling silver items contain a minimum of 92.5% pure silver. Sterling silver will last for a long time if cared for properly, whereas silver-plating will wear off and generally does not last.
Each set of earrings is handcrafted and therefore unique. The small variations between each piece adds to their individualised charm.
They have been registered in my database and come with a certificate of authenticity. Many thanks for your support. I wish you and your whānau the deepest peace and happiness.
