Being up to 200 million years old, this Australian petrified wood is absolutely stunning when highly polished showcasing an array browns, tans and reds.
When up close, you can see each layer of annual growth the tree went through prior to become fossilised.
Traditionally Maori believe the Manaia is the messenger between the heavens and earth and its symbol is used as a guardian to the wearer against evil.
Being made of Australian stone, to me this one off piece represents the bond we have between both New Zealand and Australia. That so many of our people are now intertwined and we as a whole will always look out for one another
